RE: rabbitmq-server will not start

Chef Infra (archive)

Turns out even though I disabled IPv6 via /etc/sysctl.conf per the recommendations in the CentOS FAQ, rabbitmq-server will still fail. so we had to add an entry into /etc/modprobe.conf.local as shown below.

  /etc/modprobe.conf.local

  install ipv6 /bin/true

All is well again.

Subject: rabbitmq-server will not start

I am having trouble on a new chef server… rabbitmq-server will not start (error logs below)… I using the chef-server cookbook with chef-solo to install chef server… It blows up during the startup of rabbitmq-server. I have disabled IPv6 in /etc/sysctl.conf. This is n CentOS 6.

I found some info in the rabbitmq forums, but nothing I have tried helps… Anyone else have this problem?

Thanks

Randy
