Homebrew Upgrade of Rabbitmq Gotcha

If you recieve something like {could_not_start,rabbit,{previous_upgrade_failed,{rabbit,start,[normal,[]]}}}, searching for could_not_start didn't provide me with much help.

Remove previous mnesia contents

For rabbitmq: stable 3.5.3 this is located at /usr/local/var/lib/rabbitmq/mnesia/.

Simply rm -rf * to remove all of it's contents.

Note this will remove all your messages, but in development, this wasn't a concern.
