Recent versions of Perceptive Content require a user to utilize the RabbitMQ messaging service. By default, RABBITMQ_BASE (data and log) folder is set to %APPDATA%RabbitMQ. This location is tied to the user who performed the install, making it inconvenient for anyone else when trying to troubleshoot the RabbitMQ installation.
