AMQP setup problems

Hi all,

After several hours of messing around I'm stumped getting AMQP working. I have versions 0.9.8 across the board, plus python-txamqp-0.3 on Ubuntu 10.04.2.

Fairly simple config:

ENABLE_AMQP = True
# AMQP_VERBOSE = False
AMQP_HOST = localhost
AMQP_PORT = 5672
AMQP_VHOST = /arcus/graphite
AMQP_USER = arcus
AMQP_PASSWORD = ******
AMQP_EXCHANGE = graphite
AMQP_METRIC_NAME_IN_BODY = False

Am getting the following error:

==> console.log <==

A bit of brute force print statements (I'm not a pythonista unfortunately) has lead me to it bombing at the self.authentication and then back into txamqp then twisted where I get a bit lost.

Any ideas what the problem may be?
