[Bug 1199474] Re: rabbitmq fails to start unless /etc/hosts is set a specific way

[Simon MacMullen]

Please see what I said in that thread:

http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.comp.networking.rabbitmq.general/18295

The assertion that the hostname needs to resolve to 127.0.0.1 via
/etc/hosts is untrue. The hostname needs to resolve to an IP address of
the machine, via DNS or /etc/hosts or whatever.

Note also that the OP in that thread eventually traced their problem to
a firewall.
