Not able to Start rabbitmq server in centos 7 using systemctl
I am trying to start the rabbitmq server in centos 7. I installed erlang as it is a dependency to rabbitmq-server. Package erlang.x86_64 0:R16B-03.7.el7 .I then Installed rabbitmq using package rabbitmq-server-3.2.2-1.noarch.rpm. Installation was successful. I enabled management console uisng rabbitmq-plugins enable rabbitmq_management. But while starting the service rabbitmq-server it fails.
[root@tve-centos ~]# systemctl start rabbitmq-server.service
Job for rabbitmq-server.service failed. See 'systemctl status rabbitmq-server.service' and 'journalctl -xn' for details.
[root@tve-centos ~]# systemctl status rabbitmq-server.service

and logs shows /var/log/rabbitmq/startup_log BOOT FAILED ===========
Error description:

{could_not_start_listener,[{port,15672}],eacces}}
Log files (may contain more information):
/var/log/rabbitmq/[email protected]
/var/log/rabbitmq/[email protected]
but no process is using port 15672
But if I try to start it using /usr/sbin/rabbitmq-server .I successfully started the service. But my requirements are to start it using the systemctl.
Answer
Better answer would be to actually fix SELinux and the firewall.
Open the port:
firewall-cmd --permanent --add-port=5672/tcp
firewall-cmd --reload
setsebool -P nis_enabled 1
That works for me.
