[error] Protocol 'inet_tcp': register/listen error: eacces

[maxjf1]

I was using rabbitmq image normally for the past few months. today, i'm trying to use it and i'm having the following error:

Creating network "node-ocr-server_default" with the default driver
Creating node-ocr-server_rabbitmq_1 ... done
Attaching to node-ocr-server_rabbitmq_1
rabbitmq_1  | Distribution failed: {{:shutdown, {:failed_to_start_child, :net_kernel, {:EXIT, :nodistribution}}}, {:child, :undefined, :net_sup_dynamic, {:erl_distribution, :start_link, [[:"rabbitmqcli-47-rabbit@deb0e3b8af05", :shortnames, 15000], false]}, :permanent, 1000, :supervisor, [:erl_distribution]}}
rabbitmq_1  | Protocol 'inet_tcp': register/listen error: eacces
node-ocr-server_rabbitmq_1 exited with code 1

I am using docker compose with the following settings:

version: "3.3"
services:
  rabbitmq:
    image: rabbitmq:3
    ports:
      - "4369:4369"
      - "5672:5672"
      - "25672:25672"
      - "15672:15672"

Even without any ports it doesn't work. Older projects stopped working as well (without changes)

My system:

Is anything else using that port?
You could also try asking one of the Rabbitmq resources https://github.com/rabbitmq/rabbitmq-server#getting-help or Stack Overflow

These issues look relevant to the error message

No, as i said, even not exposing any ports i get this error

These issues look relevant to the error message

I've tried them but they talk about missing connections and ports, but i'm using an docker container, that shouldn't make any difference...

I have a similar issue.

My docker-compose:

version: '3.7'
services:
  rabbitmq3:
    image: "rabbitmq:3-management"
    command: rabbitmq-server
    ports:
      - 4369:4369
      - 5672:5672
      - 15672:15672
      - 25672:25672

Then I do sudo rabbitmqctl status,
and I get this error:

Distribution failed: {{:shutdown, {:failed_to_start_child, :net_kernel, {:EXIT, :nodistribution}}}, {:child, :undefined, :net_sup_dynamic, {:erl_distribution, :start_link, [[:"rabbitmqcli-39293-rabbit@localhost", :shortnames, 15000], false, :net_sup_dynamic]}, :permanent, 1000, :supervisor, [:erl_distribution]}}

Something happened with my OS and every Container had network issues. So i've reinstalled linux, it was the only solution i've found...

@maxjf1 Crazy!
I'm on macOS and I don't know what to do :( Is this your final docker-compose?

version: '3.7'
services:
  rabbitmq3:
    image: "rabbitmq:3-management"
    command: rabbitmq-server
    ports:
      - 4369:4369
      - 5672:5672
      - 15672:15672
      - 25672:25672

Can you then do sudo rabbitmqctl status without any issues?

Can you then do sudo rabbitmqctl status without any issues?

Inside the container yes i think, but ouside it won't work, since rabbitmq runs in the container.
