How can I verify which version of rabbitmq is running on a server?

Is there a command to verify that rabbitmq is running?

Rabbitmq Solutions

Solution 1 - Rabbitmq

> sudo rabbitmqctl status

and look for line that looks like that:

> {rabbit,"RabbitMQ","2.6.1"},

Solution 2 - Rabbitmq

You can simply execute from the command line:

sudo rabbitmqctl status | grep rabbit

Solution 3 - Rabbitmq

If rabbitimq can not start I found the only way to determine version is via installer system.

Eample Debian/Ubuntu:

dpkg -s rabbitmq-server | grep Version

Solution 4 - Rabbitmq

As Marek said on a local server, or, on a remote server (using amqplib):

from amqplib import client_0_8 as amqp
import sys

conn = amqp.Connection(host=sys.argv[1], userid="guest", password="guest", virtual_host="/", insist=False)

for k, v in conn.server_properties.items():
    print k, v

Save as checkVersion.py and run with python checkVersion.py dev.rabbitmq.com:

% python checkVersion.py dev.rabbitmq.com

Solution 5 - Rabbitmq

If you have no access to rabbitmqctl or rabbitmq-server is not running, on linux do :

ls /usr/lib/rabbitmq/lib/

I got :

rabbitmq_server-3.5.6

Solution 6 - Rabbitmq

On debian systems, you can just run:

dpkg-query --showformat='${Version}' --show rabbitmq-server

Solution 7 - Rabbitmq

To get RabbitMQ version using the .NET/C# RabbitMQ Client Library:

using (var connection = connectionFactory.CreateConnection())
{
    if (connection.ServerProperties.ContainsKey("version"))
        Console.WriteLine("Version={0}",
            Encoding.UTF8.GetString((byte[])connection.ServerProperties["version"]));
}

Output:

> Version=3.6.3

Solution 8 - Rabbitmq

Since I was looking to do this in C# on a Windows machine and all the current answers are for *nix, I'll post the code that I ended up using:

public string GetRabbitMqVersion()
{
    string prefix = "rabbitmq_server-";
    var dirs = System.IO.Directory.EnumerateDirectories(@"C:\Program Files (x86)\RabbitMQ Server", string.Format("{0}*",prefix));

    foreach (var dir in dirs)
    {
        //Just grab the text after 'rabbitmq_server-' and return the first item found
        var i = dir.LastIndexOf(prefix);
        return dir.Substring(i+16);
    }
    return "Unknown";
}

Solution 9 - Rabbitmq

In the likely event you're using the "management" (web) plug-in, the RabbitMQ version appears in the upper-right corner of every web page, along with the version of the Erlang run-time.

Solution 10 - Rabbitmq

I use following command to trim output down to version,

rabbitmqctl status | grep "{rabbit,\"RabbitMQ\""

Output:

  {rabbit,"RabbitMQ","3.7.3"},

Solution 11 - Rabbitmq

On Centos you can use yum list rabbitmq-server.

Solution 12 - Rabbitmq

# sudo bash

# rabbitmqctl status | grep rabbit
