Hi Acumatica People,

 

I am trying to upgrade a non-production environment to 2026 R1 from 2025 R1. I have historically commented out section in the web config file associated with running RabbitMQ.

 

I downloaded the msi, builds.acumatica.com - /builds/, and kicked-off the installation and it worked.

It starts the configuration wizard and I select “Upgrade” and I receive this dialog box: 

 

 

Then I receive a RabbitMQ configuration dialog box.

 

“Choose whether the system will automatically set up RabbitMQ on the current servoer or if you will provide connection settings to connect to an existing instance.”

 

I opted to “Set up RabbitMQ on this server automatically”

 

It tells me that it is unable to connect to RabbitMQ and that I should try an existing RabbitMQ instance.

 

I would prefer to setup RabbitMQ on the server automatically, using a service account for “Acumatica things”. How do I do this?
