There is no need to set that environment variable. Assuming that the vxadmin user installed RabbitMQ, if you'd like to create a config file do the following:

  • Unset the RABBITMQ_CONFIG_FILE environment variable
  • Open the "RabbitMQ Command Prompt (sbin dir)" start menu item

  • Run the following commands:

    .\rabbitmq-service.bat stop

    .\rabbitmq-service.bat remove

  • Create the following file C:\Users\vxadmin\AppData\Roaming\RabbitMQ\rabbitmq.conf containing the configuration you'd like. NOTE: this file is in the "ini-style" format. Please use the correct format - it is well-documented here

  • Run the following commands in the previous shell:

    .\rabbitmq-service.bat install

    .\rabbitmq-service.bat start
