I don’t know if it a sending port it says in the rabbitmq dashboard it says a listing ports. It seems that this mautic you need this rabbitmq to handle the cronjobs. When I posted this message I did not have Rabbit set up now it is seems to working but I might have the port mixed up? Here is the new message [[2020-11-19 22:48:59] mautic.CRITICAL: Uncaught PHP Exception ErrorException: “stream\_socket\_client(): unable to connect to tcp://localhost:15672:55672 (Network is unreachable)” at /home4/erbornb2/providencesilverco.com/mautic/vendor/php-amqplib/php-amqplib/PhpAmqpLib/Wire/IO/StreamIO.php line 141 {“exception”:"[object] (ErrorException(code: 0): stream\_socket\_client(): unable to connect to tcp://localhost:15672:55672 (Network is unreachable) at /home4/erbornb2/providencesilverco.com/mautic/vendor/php-amqplib/php-amqplib/PhpAmqpLib/Wire/IO/StreamIO.php:141)"} ] Thx.

RabbitMQ is a queuing protocol, most users don’t need it. Unless you know what you are doing turn it off. You can do it in the Settings - Configuration - Queue Settings. Choose deactivated. Good luck! ---
