RabbitMQ server is started but not able to access localhost url

[Vivek-S-Lumen]

Hi ,
I have installed RabbitMq server version 3.8.2 on my windows 11. It is showing running status in services but not able to use localhost url. where I have enable the rabbitmq-management plugin also. Still the problem is not resolved. any one please help on this.

FYI : I'm using windows 11 enterprise version with a build number of 22h2

There isn't enough details to suggest much.

Use

rabbitmq-plugins.bat list

to see what plugins are enabled.

See Troubleshooting Networking and Windows firewall settings to see if the ports RabbitMQ uses are whitelisted or not.

Also, keep in mind that RabbitMQ 3.8 is out of support. Consider upgrading to 3.11.

Here are the enabled plugins

@michaelklishin did you have the time to check these in

[michaelklishin]

All this tells us that the plugin is enabled. This does not have any details on Windows firewall settings or any other observations recommended earlier.

Please use 3.11.x and not 3.8.2, a release that's 33 patches behind in the no longer supported 3.8 series.

@michaelklishin I have tried installing 3.11.x as you mentioned in my system. my local machine version is windows 11 enterprise and having the build of 22H2. Even though the rabbitMQ server is not showing up in the localhost:15672. I checked with the my team whether any firewall is blocking the startup but we didn't seem any issue from the fire wall. Do you know what will the problem. If possible will try to connect and your help is much appreciated.

There can be any number of issues, in fact, there is a separate guide on issues specific to Windows: https://rabbitmq.com/windows-quirks.html

I have run the diagnostics. the above is the issue it is showing.

RabbitMQ is not running at all. You are still using version 3.8.2 as well.

I suggest un-installing RabbitMQ and Erlang, and starting again. Ensure that %APPDATA%\RabbitMQ is deleted after un-installation.
