Hi,

I tried installing with the same AMI as you on a new VM and get no error:

# cat /etc/image-id
image_name="amzn-ami-pv"
image_version="2013.03"
image_arch="x86_64"
image_file="amzn-ami-pv-2013.03.0.x86_64.ext4"
image_stamp="02c3-8bc3"
image_date="20130326200539"
recipe_name="amzn ami"
recipe_id="240049bc-8990-fb91-ccad-aeb9-4dfe-eaac-44035533"

# /sbin/service rabbitmq-server start
Starting rabbitmq-server: SUCCESS


Perhaps you mistakenly installed the SuSE RPM instead of the generic
one. The RPM I tested with was rabbitmq-server-3.2.0-1.noarch.rpm.
