For some reason, one of controllers (small isolated region that I have
for tests in lab), it still doesn't work... I'll investigate it more.
Version "1:16.b.3-dfsg-1ubuntu2.1":
---
root at controller-1:~# dpkg -l | grep erlang-base
ii erlang-base 1:16.b.3-dfsg-1ubuntu2.1 amd64 Erlang/OTP virtual machine and base applications
root at controller-1:~# service rabbitmq-server restart
* Restarting message broker rabbitmq-server
...fail!
---
Then, I removed the IPv6 "nameservers" entries out from
/etc/resolv.conf...:
---
root at controller-1:~# service rabbitmq-server restart
* Restarting message broker rabbitmq-server
...done.
---
It seems that there are still something wrong with it...
I'll post it here if I can figure it out.
Best,
Thiago

Bug description:
[Impact]
Users of RabbitMQ in IPv6 environments are unable to stop/start/restart rabbitmq.
[Test Case]
On and IPv6 only server:
sudo apt-get install rabbitmq-server
...
* Starting message broker rabbitmq-server
* FAILED - check /var/log/rabbitmq/startup_\{log, _err\}
...fail!
[Regression Potential]
The fix for this issue is in erlang itself; enabling IPv6 support in epmd is a compile time option so there is scope for regression. Testing should ensure that existing IPv4 deployments of erlang tools do not regress with this change (validated RMQ already against PPA packages).
[Original Bug Report]
Guys,
I'm trying to install rabbitmq-server on Ubuntu 14.04 on a IPv6-Only
network and it fails, look:

E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)
---
The log:
---
root at server-1:~# cat /var/log/rabbitmq/startup_log
ERROR: epmd error for host "server-1": address (cannot connect to host/port)
---
The connectivity (resolved via /etc/hosts):
---
root at server-1:~# ping6 server-1

64 bytes from server-1.domain.com.br: icmp_seq=2 ttl=64 time=0.044 ms
---
However, if I comment out the "nameserver 2001:4860:4860::8844"
entries out from /etc/resolv.conf, then, rabbitmq-server starts! Very
weird...
Nothing on /etc/resolv.conf now...:
