[chef] RE: rabbitmq-server will not start

["Van Fossan,Randy" < >]

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
