I am running RabbitMQ inside a container on localhost; my /etc/rabbitmq/rabbitmq.conf is pretty straightforward:
loopback_users.guest = false
listeners.tcp.default = 5672
management.tcp.port = 15672
management.disable_stats = false
I can access management ui with no problem (as a default guest user), but I see no graphs and stats on an Overview tab. And when I enter Channels tab there is only a message:
Stats in management UI are disabled on this node
What can be the reason of this behaviour?

I encountered exactly the same problem today. If you are using rabbitmq inside a container, make sure you are using the correct image, as stated in their website:
docker run -it --rm --name rabbitmq -p 5672:5672 -p 15672:15672 rabbitmq:3-management.
The rabbitmq_management plugin is enabled by default.
I was using docker run -it --rm --name rabbitmq -p 5672:5672 -p 15672:15672 rabbitmq. I had to manually turn on the management plugin and I encountered your problem.
The reason is that the default image disables metrics collector in the management_agent plugin:
# cat /etc/rabbitmq/conf.d/management_agent.disable_metrics_collector.conf
management_agent.disable_metrics_collector = true
For deployment, you could turn it on or off through the configuration file. The instruction could be found HERE.
cd /etc/rabbitmq/conf.d/
echo management_agent.disable_metrics_collector = false > management_agent.disable_metrics_collector.conf
then restart docker container enter image description here
There is a config-file in the docker-container which disables metrics
root@rabbitmqcontainer:/etc/rabbitmq/conf.d# ls -1
management_agent.disable_metrics_collector.conf <<<<<<<<<<<<
root@rabbitmqcontainer:/etc/rabbitmq/conf.d# cat manage*.conf
management_agent.disable_metrics_collector = true
I overwrote this config by copying a file the a name at the end of the alphabet in my Dockerfile:
COPY data/etc/rabbitmq/conf.d/zzz_enable_stats.conf /etc/rabbitmq/conf.d/
The content of the file is
management_agent.disable_metrics_collector = false
This overrides the config to the value I wish. I think all the config-files in the directory are worked off by alphabet.
