It looks like rabbitmq didn't start because it was already running (or
something else was using its port). It should be running on port 5672.
You could run 'sudo netstat -lnp | grep 5672' to see what program is
running on that port. Perhaps did you install rabbitmq from source
previously on this system, and then try to install the debian packages
over the top?

When you find this process you could kill it and then run 'sudo
apt-get install -f' to continue the apt installation.

I strongly recommend choosing either an entirely apt based
installation or a source based installation, at least until you're
more familiar with the infrastructure that Chef utilizes to implement
a service oriented architecture.
