Using rabbitmq, we can install management plugin. Then we access via browser using using guest:guest.
The problem is, I can not login anymore because i changed password and entered blank for role.
Is there any way to reset user for rabbitmq management?

You can access the user-management with rabbitmqctl and use the command:
add_user {username} {password}
or more preferably maybe edit an existing user, or set the permissions for the new user with:
set_permissions [-p vhostpath] {user} {conf} {write} {read}
For example use the following commands: (it is important to perform these three steps even when creating a new user, if you want to be able to login to the UI console and for your programs to work without facing any permission issues)
rabbitmqctl add_user newadmin s0m3p4ssw0rd
rabbitmqctl set_user_tags newadmin administrator
rabbitmqctl set_permissions -p / newadmin ".*" ".*" ".*"
...to create a new administrator user with full access to the default / vhost.
You can find all this on the RabbitMQ homepage, and more specifically on this page
The simplest way I found is to use this command to reset the password for any user in RabbitMQ
rabbitmqctl change_password <USERNAME> <NEWPASSWORD>
This is specifically for aliveness test, but could apply to other apis as well
rabbitmqctl add_vhost statuscheckvhost
rabbitmqctl add_user heartbeat alive
rabbitmqctl set_permissions -p statuscheckvhost heartbeat ".*" ".*" ".*"
rabbitmqctl set_user_tags heartbeat management
curl -i -u heartbeat:alive

If you have RabbitMQ on a docker container, you can first
docker exec -it <YOUR_CONTAINER> /bin/bash
Then you can do
rabbitmqctl change_password <USERNAME> <NEWPASSWORD>
such as @samtoddler pointed out
I was able to reset after this post. Thanks a lot.
rabbitmqctl add_user test password rabbitmqctl set_user_tags test administrator
Then I went to browser console and login with this test account. And from there I was able to reset pwd of admin account & guest account.
