Why can't I find the 'rabbitmq.config' file while I have already installed RabbitMQ?

I'm running Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7.2, I have installed RabbitMQ and systemctl status rabbitmq-server shows

● rabbitmq-server.service - LSB: Enable AMQP service provided by RabbitMQ broker Loaded: loaded (/etc/rc.d/init.d/rabbitmq-server)
Active: active (running) since Wed 2016-08-17 11:25:56 JST; 1h 14min ago Docs: man:systemd-sysv-generator(8)

But when I want to configure it I cannot find the file: find / -iname "rabbitmq.config" shows nothing.

I have an application which connects to 127.0.0.1:3000, but the default port listened by RabbitMQ is 5672, so I want to add the port 3000 (hope it will fix the problem)

RabbitMQ by default does not create the config file.

you have to create it, usually the location is:

/etc/rabbitmq/rabbitmq.config

See: https://www.rabbitmq.com/configure.html

and
