Deleting RabbitMQ Queues
July 4, 2010
There's no support on RabbitMQ's command line (rabbitmqctl) for deleting queues. This can be achieved using amqp-utils, a ruby gem.
To install on Fedora 11:
# yum install ruby ruby-devel rubygems # gem install amqp-utils
You can then list queues with
rabbitmqctl list_queues
and delete with:
amqp-deleteq queue_to_delete other_queue_to_delete
