Firstly, installed

  1. erlang

  2. rabbitmqserver

Then, try to run command to enable plugin like the following:

C:\Program Files (x86)\RabbitMQ Server\rabbitmq_server-3.6.9\sbin>rabbitmq-plugins enable rabbitmq_management

Plugin configuration unchanged.

Applying plugin configuration to rabbit@PVGN50886410A... failed.

  • Could not contact node rabbit@PVGN50886410A. Changes will take effect at broker restart.

  • Options: --online - fail if broker cannot be contacted. --offline - do not try to contact broker.

C:\Program Files (x86)\RabbitMQ Server\rabbitmq_server-3.6.9\sbin>rabbitmq-plugins enable --offline rabbitmq_priority_queue

Error: The following plugins could not be found: rabbitmq_priority_queue

Can anyone help on this?

check this link: https://www.rabbitmq.com/windows-quirks.html

This makes it impossible to use rabbitmqctl.

Workarounds:

Run the installer as an administrator or Copy the file .erlang.cookie manually from %SystemRoot% to %HOMEDRIVE%%HOMEPATH%.

and also check this answer:

I faced same issue in my windows 10 machine and figured the root cause of this issue. Prior to install the Rabbit MQ server in my machine, I am using Active MQ server and this service running by default.

So, what I did was just stopped the Active MQ service and removed service for rabbit mq too. Freshly, I started rabbit mq server then installed plugin and it's working for me. Please check it.

In my case, this thread helped me: I reinstalled erlang, rabbitmq and deleted Windows registries HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Ericsson\Erlang and HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Ericsson\Erlang

After reinstallation, didn't have to issue the plugin enabling command.

I use erlang 9.2 and rabbitmq 3.7.3.
