How can I turn database online?

I downloaded the latest Neo4j desktop and import the dump file, neo4j-p2p-data.dump, from the below URL, into the existing DBMS using the name fraud.

Then, start the DBMS, but the database, fraud, is offline.
How can I turn the database online?

Operationg System is Windows 10
neo4j desktop is Version 1.5.7

Hello @yokawada and welcome to the Neo4j Commumity.

In Neo4j Browser, type:

START DATABASE fraud

I started my Desktop database and clicked on 'Open'. It opened up default Neo4j. On the right pane I typed 'START DATABASE xxxx and executed the command.

Result: Database is unavailable because the db is offline!
What went wrong here?

Thank you for replying to me.
I issued the command and refresh, but the situation hasn't changed.
What should I do next?

When switch to the system db and you type:

SHOW DATABASES

Is the database listed as active?

The dump file you are using is a 4.x dump file. You are trying to load it into a 5.3 DBMS which will not work.

I see that in the repo, there is a 4.3 dump file:

Can you create a 4.3 DBMS and load the neo4j-p2p-data_v43.dump into it?

Try this:

Step 1: bin/neo4j-admin database copy fraud fraud1 --force
Once it's successful

Step 2: Switch to the system db and type: CREATE DATABASE fraud1

Step 3: Then type SHOW DATABASES

Check to see the status of fraud1 database

Thank you for your advice.
I loaded to v4.3 and it works.

I really appreciate your help!
