If you’re running rabbitmqadmin and encountered an error with Name or service not known in it, it could be because you’re using the port in --host. In the example below, instead of just the hostname (i.e., localhost), the port was also provided. The correct command should be ./rabbitmqadmin -u someadminuser -p someadminpw --host localhost --port 15672 list queues
./rabbitmqadmin -u someadminuser -p someadminpw --host localhost:15672 list queues
