## RabbitMQ 3.7.7
RabbitMQ `3.7.7` a maintenance release. This release introduces
compatibility with [Erlang/OTP 21](http://www.erlang.org/news/123).
### Upgrades and Compatibility
This release has no known incompatibilities with earlier `3.7.x` releases.
#### Upgrading to Erlang 21.0
When upgrading to this release **and upgrading Erlang to 21.0** at the same time, extra care has to be taken.
Since CLI tools from any earlier RabbitMQ release will fail on Erlang 21, RabbitMQ **must be upgraded before Erlang**.
#### Documentation Guides and Change Log
See [3.7.0 release notes](https://github.com/rabbitmq/rabbitmq-server/releases/tag/v3.7.0) upgrade and
compatibility notes if upgrading from an earlier release.
See the [Upgrading guide](https://www.rabbitmq.com/upgrade.html) for general documentation on upgrades and
[RabbitMQ change log](https://www.rabbitmq.com/changelog.html) for release notes of other releases.

Erlang runtime release.

* Windows installer will now take default [Erlang cookie](https://www.rabbitmq.com/cli.html#erlang-cookie) location differences between Erlang versions into account.

GitHub issue: [rabbitmq/rabbitmq-auth-backend-ldap#94](https://github.com/rabbitmq/rabbitmq-auth-backend-ldap/issues/94)
### Consul Peer Discovery Plugin
#### Bug Fixes
* The following combination of settings was rejected by the plugin, even though they are reasonable
and were recommended by the docs:
``` ini
cluster_formation.consul.svc_addr_auto = true
# en0 is just an example, it could be any other NIC name
cluster_formation.consul.svc_addr_nic = en0
```
