Hey I took a quick look at it looks to be caused by: https://github.com/rabbitmq/chef-cookbook/pull/505 I believe you should be able to pin the version of the rabbitmq cookbook in your wrapper to: 5.6.1 I have not had a chance to look at what a fix looks like as we need to be careful to not break any existing setups that use prior versions before this change happened. Since we loosely pin our versions there are likely people running multiple versions.

[michaelklishin]

Instead of pinning to 5.6.1, use 5.7.2 (or 5.7.3 which is about to be shipped) and configure RabbitMQ version to 3.7.13.

RabbitMQ 3.6.x has been out of support and RabbitMQ Chef cookbook 5.7.x is the last series that supports it in any capacity.
