RABBITMQ - Applying Plugin Failed - rabbitmq

Question

EDIT: After setting the rabbitmq variables up in System Environment Variables and trying another un/reinstall the issue is resolved.
The following plugins have been enabled: rabbitmq_shovel
Applying plugin configuration to rabbit#MSGTEST01... started 1 plugin.
END EDIT
c:\RabbitMQ\rabbitmq_server-3.6.12\sbin>rabbitmq-plugins enable
rabbitmq_shovel rabbitmq_shovel_management Plugin configuration
unchanged.
Applying plugin configuration to rabbit#M... failed. Error:
{enabled_plugins_mismatch,"c:\Users\\AppData\Roaming\RabbitMQ
\ENABLE~1",
"c:\RabbitMQ\ENABLE~1"}
I set the following then reinstalled the service:
set RABBITMQ_BASE=c:\RabbitMQ
set RABBITMQ_CONFIG_FILE=c:\RabbitMQ\rabbitmq
set RABBITMQ_LOG_BASE=c:\RabbitMQ\logs
set RABBITMQ_MNESIA_BASE=c:\RabbitMQ\db
set RABBITMQ_ENABLED_PLUGINS_FILE=c:\RabbitMQ\enabled_plugins
Why is it still looking in my roaming profile for anything? Moreover, ENABLE~1 doesn't look like a valid filename.
I've tried blowing away my roaming profile data, RabbitMQ recreates the files.
I've tried copying my C:\RabbitMQ\enables_plugins to roaming, same thing.
Tried the reverse, same thing.
I've tried uninstalling and resintalling the service, same thing.
I'm able to enable the management ui after install, but not rabbitmq_shovel and cannot figure out what the issue is.
Again, this works after install:
rabbitmq-plugins enable rabbitmq_management
This fails with the error above:
rabbitmq-plugins enable rabbitmq_shovel
I'm running these commands as Admin in CMD.

Answer 1

Set up the variables in System Environment Variables and perform the following in CMD as Admin:
rabbitmqctl shutdown
rabbitmqctl stop
rabbitmq-service.bat remove
rabbitmq-service.bat install
rabbitmq-service.bat start
rabbitmq-plugins enable rabbitmq_management
rabbitmq-plugins enable rabbitmq_shovel
That worked for me.

Answer 2

I was able to fix the issue without having to uninstall RabbitMQ
Open the files named "enabled_plugins" at the two directory locations int he error your recived.  For me, those directories were "C:\Users\UserName\AppData\Roaming\RabbitMQ" and "C:\ProgramData\RabbitMQ".
For me, one file had:
[rabbitmq_management].
while the other was empty.  I copied the config snippet above into the empty file and saved it.
Run the commands as ADMIN in Command Prompt:
rabbitmqctl shutdown
rabbitmqctl stop
rabbitmq-service.bat start
rabbitmq-plugins enable rabbitmq_management
I did receive the same "enabled_plugins_mismatch" error; however, when I browsed to my RabbitMQ UI plugin at "http://localhost:15672/#/" the UI showed up and is functioning.
