How to restart RabbitMQ service

Question

I am getting a strange error while restarting the rabbitmq service and because of that I am unable to restart RabbitMQ service. I got this message from EventViewer and have tried to find solution by googling but no luck..please suggest.

RabbitMQ: Erlang machine voluntarily stopped. The service is not restarted as OnFail is set to ignore.

Thanks

On a modern Linux you can restart it like any other service

sudo service rabbitmq-server restart 

There is a specific control interface as well

sudo rabbitmqctl "report" sudo rabbitmqctl "reset"
