how can i export a neo4j database from windows to unix. when i tried, i got the following error message:
neo4j-admin load --from=./globssb_28092022.dump --database=globssb --force
WARNING: Max 1024 open files allowed, minimum of 40000 recommended. See the Neo4j manual.
**Not a valid Neo4j archive: ./globssb_28092022.dump
**
However, the export was generated on Windows without any error message
How did you generated it on windows?
How did you transfer it?
Can you try: file globssb_28092022.dump
and see what it outputs or look at the file with less or
hexdump -C globssb_28092022.dump
I generated it with (with ou any error or warning) :
neo4j-admin.bat load --from=C:\neo4jdata\dumpssb\globssb_28092022.dump --database=ssb --force
i tranfred it with scp command
Cimman file get :
file globssb_28092022.dump
globssb_28092022.dump: Dzip archive data, version 86.49
less commande :
hexdump -C globssb_28092022.dump (take time but work with no problem)
by the way , i imported it in another windows machine for test and it work well.
May be it's a version problem?
neo4j in windew : 4.4.5 enterprise
neo4j in linux :"Neo4j Kernel" | "4.0.12" | "enterprise"
Yes you need the same or higher version.
If it’s not the same you need to enable upgrades in neo4j.conf
