[rabbitmq-discuss] Issues getting RabbitMQ running using apt-get

[Jason Frame]

I have had no luck getting RabbitMQ to run using the apt repository.  I have been working on this for a couple of weeks now.

The server is Ubuntu 12.04 running on Linode, and I have opened up port 5672 on the iptables firewall.


Installation gets this far and then just hangs:


Unpacking rabbitmq-server (from .../rabbitmq-server_3.2.4-1_all.deb) ...

Processing triggers for man-db ...

Processing triggers for ureadahead ...

Setting up rabbitmq-server (3.2.4-1) ...

 * Starting message broker rabbitmq-server
