Something is broken in the init script. If you later attempt to start rabbitmq
manually by running the executable indicated (/usr/sbin/rabbitmq-server) the
program (so far) appears to run correctly.
Running it via the system script later (systemctl start rabbitmq-server)
produces the same error.
There is no log output when rabbitmq fails this way. No startup log, No crash
log, simply nothing, so the program is likely never ran.
