Building a RabbitMQ server

Steps for installing on Debian 11 from the Cloudsmith repos

Following the docs here

apt update
apt install curl gnupg apt-transport-https -y

Installing the signing keys

curl -1sLf "https://keys.openpgp.org/vks/v1/by-fingerprint/0A9AF2115F4687BD29803A206B73A36E6026DFCA" | gpg --dearmor | tee /usr/share/keyrings/com.rabbitmq.team.gpg > /dev/null

curl -1sLf https://ppa1.novemberain.com/gpg.E495BB49CC4BBE5B.key | gpg --dearmor | tee /usr/share/keyrings/rabbitmq.E495BB49CC4BBE5B.gpg > /dev/null

curl -1sLf https://ppa1.novemberain.com/gpg.9F4587F226208342.key | gpg --dearmor | tee /usr/share/keyrings/rabbitmq.9F4587F226208342.gpg > /dev/null

Adding the apt repos

tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/rabbitmq.list <<EOF

Installing

apt update

apt install -y erlang-base \
    erlang-asn1 erlang-crypto erlang-eldap erlang-ftp erlang-inets \
    erlang-mnesia erlang-os-mon erlang-parsetools erlang-public-key \
    erlang-runtime-tools erlang-snmp erlang-ssl \
    erlang-syntax-tools erlang-tftp erlang-tools erlang-xmerl

apt install rabbitmq-server -y --fix-missing

Checking

systemctl status rabbitmq-server

Creating admin account, setting the administrator tag, and permissions

rabbitmqctl add_user admin Password123
rabbitmqctl set_user_tags admin administrator
rabbitmqctl set_permissions -p / admin ".*" ".*" ".*"

Enabling RabbitMQ Management console

rabbitmq-plugins enable rabbitmq_management

Checking

ss -antpl | grep 15672

LISTEN 0      1024         0.0.0.0:15672      0.0.0.0:*    users:(("beam.smp",pid=2064,fd=51))

Logging in

http://192.168.122.235:15672/ with admin/Password123

And checking the api too

http://192.168.122.235:15672/api/

Adding nginx in front

/etc/nginx/sites-available/rabbitmq-01.domain.dom.conf

server {
    listen 192.168.122.235:80;
    server_name rabbitmq-01.domain.dom;

    access_log /var/log/nginx/rabbitmq-access.log;
    error_log /var/log/nginx/rabbitmq-error.log;

    location / {
        client_body_buffer_size 128k;
        proxy_send_timeout   90;
        proxy_read_timeout   90;
        proxy_buffer_size    4k;
        proxy_buffers     16 32k;
        proxy_busy_buffers_size 64k;
        proxy_temp_file_write_size 64k;
        proxy_connect_timeout 30s;
        proxy_pass   http://192.168.122.235:15672;
        proxy_set_header   Host   $host;
        proxy_set_header   X-Real-IP  $remote_addr;
        proxy_set_header   X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
    }
}
