Hello Guys! I'm trying to use Logstash to receive messages from RabbitMQ but it not recognize my configuration, cosidering only `localhost:5672` and failing when tries to connect. I have already tested the connection with RabbitMQ several times and with many applications, and all works fine. I'm using Docker to run Logstash, installing RabbitMQ Input Plugin before running Logstash docker-compose (only logstash part) ```auto logstash: image: docker.elastic.co/logstash/logstash:7.3.1 container_name: logstash environment: - NODE_NAME=my-logstash - PATH_CONFIG=/usr/share/logstash/my-confs volumes: - ./logstash/conf:/usr/share/logstash/my-confs command: bash -c "bin/logstash-plugin install logstash-input-rabbitmq && logstash -f /usr/share/logstash/my-confs" links: - elasticsearch depends_on: - elasticsearch ``` my conf (only input part) ```auto input { rabbitmq { host => "rabbit.mydomain.com" port => 5005 vhost => "my-vhost" user => "user" password => "pass" queue => "my-queue" exchange => "my-exchange" exchange_type => "direct" durable => true automatic_recovery => true connect_retry_interval => 10 prefetch_count => 10 } } ``` Running with debug mode enabled, I can see (showing right configuration) ```auto logstash | [2019-09-04T15:29:05,950][DEBUG][logstash.inputs.rabbitmq] config LogStash::Inputs::RabbitMQ/@connect_retry_interval = 10 logstash | [2019-09-04T15:29:05,951][DEBUG][logstash.inputs.rabbitmq] config LogStash::Inputs::RabbitMQ/@heartbeat = 30 logstash | [2019-09-04T15:29:05,953][DEBUG][logstash.inputs.rabbitmq] config LogStash::Inputs::RabbitMQ/@automatic_recovery = true logstash | [2019-09-04T15:29:05,954][DEBUG][logstash.inputs.rabbitmq] config LogStash::Inputs::RabbitMQ/@exchange_type = "direct" logstash | [2019-09-04T15:29:05,956][DEBUG][logstash.inputs.rabbitmq] config LogStash::Inputs::RabbitMQ/@vhost = "elk" logstash | [2019-09-04T15:29:05,957][DEBUG][logstash.inputs.rabbitmq] config LogStash::Inputs::RabbitMQ/@durable = true logstash | [2019-09-04T15:29:05,959][DEBUG][logstash.inputs.rabbitmq] config LogStash::Inputs::RabbitMQ/@port = 5005 logstash | [2019-09-04T15:29:05,960][DEBUG][logstash.inputs.rabbitmq] config LogStash::Inputs::RabbitMQ/@host = ["rabbit.mydomain.com"] logstash | [2019-09-04T15:29:05,964][DEBUG][logstash.inputs.rabbitmq] config LogStash::Inputs::RabbitMQ/@queue = "my-queue" logstash | [2019-09-04T15:29:05,961][DEBUG][logstash.inputs.rabbitmq] config LogStash::Inputs::RabbitMQ/@exchange = "my-exchange" logstash | [2019-09-04T15:29:05,963][DEBUG][logstash.inputs.rabbitmq] config LogStash::Inputs::RabbitMQ/@user = "user" logstash | [2019-09-04T15:29:05,958][DEBUG][logstash.inputs.rabbitmq] config LogStash::Inputs::RabbitMQ/@password = logstash | [2019-09-04T15:29:05,959][DEBUG][logstash.inputs.rabbitmq] config LogStash::Inputs::RabbitMQ/@prefetch_count = 10 logstash | [2019-09-04T15:29:05,964][DEBUG][logstash.inputs.rabbitmq] config LogStash::Inputs::RabbitMQ/@enable_metric = true logstash | [2019-09-04T15:29:05,970][DEBUG][logstash.inputs.rabbitmq] config LogStash::Inputs::RabbitMQ/@threads = 1 logstash | [2019-09-04T15:29:05,973][DEBUG][logstash.inputs.rabbitmq] config LogStash::Inputs::RabbitMQ/@passive = false logstash | [2019-09-04T15:29:05,975][DEBUG][logstash.inputs.rabbitmq] config LogStash::Inputs::RabbitMQ/@arguments = {} logstash | [2019-09-04T15:29:05,976][DEBUG][logstash.inputs.rabbitmq] config LogStash::Inputs::RabbitMQ/@auto_delete = false logstash | [2019-09-04T15:29:05,976][DEBUG][logstash.inputs.rabbitmq] config LogStash::Inputs::RabbitMQ/@exclusive = false logstash | [2019-09-04T15:29:05,977][DEBUG][logstash.inputs.rabbitmq] config LogStash::Inputs::RabbitMQ/@ack = true logstash | [2019-09-04T15:29:05,978][DEBUG][logstash.inputs.rabbitmq] config LogStash::Inputs::RabbitMQ/@key = "logstash" logstash | [2019-09-04T15:29:05,979][DEBUG][logstash.inputs.rabbitmq] config LogStash::Inputs::RabbitMQ/@subscription_retry_interval_seconds = 5 logstash | [2019-09-04T15:29:05,980][DEBUG][logstash.inputs.rabbitmq] config LogStash::Inputs::RabbitMQ/@metadata_enabled = false ``` ERROR in Logstash (see that `localhost:5672` is displayed in this line) ```auto logstash | [2019-09-04T15:24:34,724][ERROR][logstash.inputs.rabbitmq] RabbitMQ connection error, will retry. {:error_message=>"Connection to localhost:5672 refused", :exception=>"MarchHare::ConnectionRefused"} ``` But I need connect to `rabbit.mydomain.com:5005`, like my configuration.

> [@ThiagoBarradas](#): > > Can someone help me? This is a [known issue](https://github.com/logstash-plugins/logstash-mixin-rabbitmq_connection/issues/53). According to that you can work around it by using ``` host => "rabbit.mydomain.com:5005" ``` ---
