RabbitMQ server error

Question

UPDATED error message

I am getting a BOOT FAILED error every time I try to start the rabbitmq server. Does anybody know how I can fix this? I have attached the error message. I have tried a few different things including uninstalling and reinstalling it and am now getting a new error message, but am at a loss for what to try next. Any suggestions are much appreciated! Thank you!!

just remove all restrictions (recursively) to directory: `/usr/local/var/lib/rabbitmq` — Muzaaya Joshua, Jul 02 '13 at 10:46

I don't know how rabbitmq works, but the error message looks clear: it tries to delete the directory /usr/local/var/lib/rabbitmq/mnesia/rabbit@localhost-plugins-expand, and fails because the process has nt the access right to delete the file /usr/local/var/lib/rabbitmq/mnesia/rabbit@localhost-plugins-expand/amqp_client-3.1.3/ebin/amqp_auth_mechanisms.beam.

Take a look at who is the owner of this file and directory, what are the access right to them.

On MacOS X it helps me rm -rf /opt/local/var/lib/rabbitmq/mnesia/ — FallDi, Jul 14 '14 at 06:44

This occurred for me during a rabbitmq upgrade with brew.

It was easier for me to just remove the directory all together and install from scratch.

sudo rm -rf /usr/local/var/rabbitmq/
brew uninstall rabbitmq; 
brew install rabbitmq
rabbitmq-server

Got this to work. Just delete the database directory and restart server. Note if you had brew installed, database might still be outside Cellar directory. So need to manually delete directory and restart.
