In order to install and set up RabbitMQ on a VPS, the first step is to log into your VPS and update the system. To do this, you will need to use a secure shell (SSH) client such as PuTTY. Once you have connected to your VPS, you can update the system by running the following command:
sudo apt-get updateIn this step, we will install RabbitMQ on our VPS. To do this, we need to log into our VPS and update the system. We can do this by running the following command:
sudo apt-get updatesudo apt-get install rabbitmq-serversudo service rabbitmq-server startsudo rabbitmq-plugins enable rabbitmq_managementsudo rabbitmqctl add_user sudo rabbitmqctl set_user_tags sudo rabbitmqctl set_permissions -p Now that RabbitMQ is installed, it's time to start the service. To do this, log into your VPS and run the following command:
sudo systemctl start rabbitmq-serversudo systemctl status rabbitmq-server● rabbitmq-server.service - RabbitMQ broker

In order to enable the RabbitMQ management plugin, you need to log into your VPS and run the following command: sudo rabbitmq-plugins enable rabbitmq_management. After that, you need to restart the RabbitMQ service with the command sudo service rabbitmq-server restart. Once the service is restarted, you can access the RabbitMQ management interface by typing http://localhost:15672 in your browser. You can also access the interface from a remote computer by typing the IP address of your VPS followed by the port number 15672. For example, if your VPS IP address is 123.456.789.012, you can access the RabbitMQ management interface by typing http://123.456.789.012:15672 in your browser. After that, you can log in to the RabbitMQ management interface with the user credentials you created earlier and enjoy using RabbitMQ on your VPS.
In order to use RabbitMQ, you need to create a user for it. To do this, log into your VPS and run the following command:
sudo rabbitmqctl add_user sudo rabbitmqctl set_user_tags administrator sudo rabbitmqctl set_permissions -p / ".*" ".*" ".*" In this step, we will set the user permissions for the RabbitMQ user we created in the previous step. To do this, we will use the rabbitmqctl command. First, we need to log in to the server and switch to the RabbitMQ user. To do this, run the following command:
sudo su - rabbitmq
Once you are logged in as the RabbitMQ user, you can set the user permissions using the rabbitmqctl command. To set the user permissions, run the following command:
rabbitmqctl set_user_tags
Replace testuser, you would run the following command:
rabbitmqctl set_user_tags testuser administrator monitoring
This command will set the user permissions for the user testuser to administrator and monitoring. You can find more information about the available tags and their meanings in the RabbitMQ documentation.
In this step, we will set the user permissions for the virtual host in RabbitMQ. To do this, we need to log in to the RabbitMQ management interface. Once logged in, we can set the user permissions for the virtual host. To do this, we need to open the Admin tab and select the virtual host from the list. Then, we need to select the user from the list and set the permissions for the user. We can set the permissions for the user to read, write, configure, and/or delete. Once the permissions are set, we can click the Save button to save the changes. After that, we can enjoy using RabbitMQ on our VPS.
Once you have installed RabbitMQ and enabled the management plugin, you can access the RabbitMQ management interface. To do this, you need to log in to your VPS and open a web browser. Then, type in the IP address of your VPS followed by the port number 15672. For example, if your VPS IP address is 192.168.1.1, you would type in 192.168.1.1:15672 in the address bar. This will open the RabbitMQ management interface, where you can manage your RabbitMQ server. You can also use the rabbitmqctl command line tool to manage your RabbitMQ server. To learn more about the rabbitmqctl command line tool, please refer to the official documentation.
Now that you have enabled the RabbitMQ management plugin, you can log in to the RabbitMQ management interface. To do this, open your web browser and type in the IP address of your VPS followed by the port number 15672. For example, if your VPS IP address is 192.168.1.1, you would type in 192.168.1.1:15672 in the address bar. You will be prompted to enter the username and password that you created earlier. Once you have entered the correct credentials, you will be logged in to the RabbitMQ management interface. From here, you can manage your RabbitMQ server and enjoy using RabbitMQ on your VPS.
Congratulations! You have successfully installed and set up RabbitMQ on your VPS. Now you can enjoy using RabbitMQ and its features. You can access the RabbitMQ management interface to manage your queues, exchanges, bindings, users, and virtual hosts. You can also use the RabbitMQ command line tools to manage your RabbitMQ server. With RabbitMQ, you can create powerful messaging applications that can scale to meet the needs of your business. So, start using RabbitMQ and enjoy its features.
