Hi all,

There is no procedure with the name `apoc.help` registered for this database instance. Please ensure you've spelled the procedure name correctly and that the procedure is properly deployed.

What is the path to the folder you are showing? Is it the database’s plugin folder?

@somdeb44

you indicate you have

```auto
dbms.security.procedures.unrestricted=myextensions.example,my.procedures.*,apoc.*

```

do you have procedures named `myextension.example` and `myprocedures.*` ?

with

```auto
dbms.security.procedures.allowlist=apoc.coll.*,apoc.load.*,gds.*

```

I get the same behavior as you. However per

> **[Configuration settings - Operations Manual](https://neo4j.com/docs/operations-manual/current/configuration/configuration-settings/#config_dbms.security.procedures.allowlist)**
>
> This page provides a complete reference to the Neo4j configuration settings.

```auto
A list of procedures (comma separated) that are to be loaded. The list may
 contain both fully-qualified procedure names, and partial names with
 the wildcard . The default () loads all procedures. If no value is specified,
 no procedures will be loaded.

```

so given your definition we would only expect APOC procedures name `poc.coll.*` and `apoc.load.*` as well as procedures named `gds.*`.

And this is expected for running

```auto
@neo4j> show procedures yield name where name contains 'apoc' return name;
+---------------------------------------+
| name |
+---------------------------------------+
| "apoc.coll.elements" |
| "apoc.coll.pairWithOffset" |
| "apoc.coll.partition" |
| "apoc.coll.split" |
| "apoc.coll.zipToRows" |
| "apoc.load.arrow" |
| "apoc.load.arrow.stream" |
| "apoc.load.csv" |
| "apoc.load.csvParams" |
| "apoc.load.directory" |
| "apoc.load.directory.async.add" |
| "apoc.load.directory.async.list" |
| "apoc.load.directory.async.remove" |
| "apoc.load.directory.async.removeAll" |
| "apoc.load.driver" |
| "apoc.load.html" |
| "apoc.load.htmlPlainText" |
| "apoc.load.jdbc" |
| "apoc.load.jdbcUpdate" |
| "apoc.load.json" |
| "apoc.load.jsonArray" |
| "apoc.load.jsonParams" |
| "apoc.load.ldap" |
| "apoc.load.parquet" |
| "apoc.load.xls" |
| "apoc.load.xml" |
+---------------------------------------+

```

so given your configuration is it expected that `call apoc.help` reports no procedures with this name

> [@dana\_canzano](#):

so @dana_canzano  
shall i comment out the whole config like  
#dbms.security.procedures.unrestricted=myextensions.example,my.procedures._,apoc._  
I am not using any myextensions or my.procedures as of now. I am using apoc.\* .

What shall i do then ☹

Try replacing “dbms.security.procedures.unrestricted=my.extensions.example,my.procedures._,apoc._”  
and  
“dbms.security.procedures.allowlist=apoc.coll._,apoc.load._,gds.\*  
with  
”dbms.security.procedures.unrestricted=apoc._,algo._”  
and  
“dbms.security.procedures.allowlist=apoc._,gds._"

Maybe try replacing  
"dbms.security.procedures.unrestricted=my.extensions.example,my.procedures._,apoc._"  
and  
"dbms.security.procedures.allowlist=apoc.coll._,apoc.load._,gds._"  
with  
"dbms.security.procedures.unrestricted=apoc._,algo._"  
and  
"dbms.security.procedures.allowlist=apoc._,gds.\*"
