RabbitMQ on Ubuntu 24.04 LTS — Support & Quick Start

At a glance

Application ports	5672 (AMQP), 15672 (management UI)
Open in browser	http://<VM-IP>:15672/
Admin credential file	sudo cat /opt/rabbitmq/admin-password
Version	RabbitMQ 4.0
Platform	Ubuntu 24.04 LTS

Quick start

1. Open the management UI at http://<VM-IP>:15672/.
2. Sign in as `admin` with the generated password (see command below), then change it immediately.
3. Create your vhosts, users, and queues; point AMQP clients at port 5672 over your VNet.

Get your admin password (one time)

SSH into the VM with the username + key you chose at deploy, then print the generated credential:

ssh <your-username>@<VM-IP>
sudo cat /opt/rabbitmq/admin-password

Sign in as admin (unless noted), then change the password immediately. The file is root-only and can be deleted once the password is stored securely.
