Connection failing between Raspberry Pi and Mac - rabbitmq

Question

I have the following
a) a rabbitmq-server and Pika installed on a Mac Yosrmite machine.
I have a rabbutmq.config /usr/local/etc/rabbitmq/rabbitmq.config that I have the statement:
{loopback_users, []}
b) On the raspberry pi I have pika installed. I also installed the rabbtmq-server.
The send.py and receive.py, using pika, work locally on both machines.
The send from the Mac to the RPi works; but, the send from the RPi to the Mac fails as follows:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "send.py", line 5, in
'192.168.1.4'))
File "/usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/pika/adapters/blocking_connection.py", line 339, in init
self._process_io_for_connection_setup()

File "/usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/pika/adapters/blocking_connection.py", line 395, in _flush_output
raise exceptions.ConnectionClosed()
pika.exceptions.ConnectionClosed
========================================
My firewall is not enabled in the Mac.
There is no errors noted in the server log.
The send.py code is:
#!/usr/bin/env python
import pika
connection = pika.BlockingConnection(pika.ConnectionParameters(
'192.168.1.4'))
channel = connection.channel()
channel.queue_declare(queue='hello')
channel.basic_publish(exchange='',
routing_key='hello',
body='Hello World!')
print(" [x] Sent 'Hello World!'")
connection.close()
===========================
I am getting the activity on the port, in both machines:
sudo tcpdump port 5672

Any help would be deeply appreciated.

I found the fix at Open port 5672/tcp for access to RabbitMQ on Mac
I deleted the "NODE_IP_ADDRESS=127.0.0.1
" statement in the /usr/local/etc/rabbitmq/rabbitmq-env.conf fiile. This was in addition to the above fix I made to the accessing.
