Hi,
This is a question regarding setting up Neo4j 3.4.
I just upgraded neo4j 3.4 from Neo4j 3.3. I configured the neo4j.conf so that I can access my previous data. However, when I started neo4j on the browser, I got the browser and there is no error message. But I cannot run a cypher query or anything. Can anyone shed some light by guiding me what to look?
Thanks,
Darius
Are there any error messages in the log file?
No there is no error message in the log file... which is odd. I guess everything seems to work, except that one thing I notice, the browser sync is disabled. I am guessing this might be the problem.
To give you more picture, I cannot even run the movie example. When I clicked on it, the cypher query shows up on the browser query section. When I run it, the query vanishes just like when the query is executed, but this time, nothing is executed. I created a new node, but the node is not stored, even though no error message shows up.
Actually, after checking the browser console, I received an error message
Uncaught TypeError: You provided an invalid object where a stream was expected. You can provide an Observable, Promise, Array, or Iterable.

Can you share how you isntalled neo4j before and now
and also your neo4j.conf and the changes you made there.
Install Process:
wget https://neo4j.com/artifact.php?name=neo4j-community-3.4.8-unix.tar.gz
sudo tar -xfz artifact.php?name=neo4j-community-3.4.8-unix.tar.gz
sudo rm -rf data
sudo ln -s / /data
# Paths of directories in the installation.

dbms.directories.run=run
dbms.security.auth_enabled=false

dbms.memory.heap.max_size=5000m
dbms.connectors.default_listen_address=xx.xxx.x.xx #server ip

dbms.connector.bolt.enabled=true
#dbms.connector.bolt.tls_level=OPTIONAL
dbms.connector.bolt.listen_address=:7687
# HTTP Connector. There must be exactly one HTTP connector.
dbms.connector.http.enabled=true
dbms.connector.http.listen_address=:7474
# To enable HTTP logging, uncomment this line
dbms.logs.http.enabled=true
# Enable a remote shell server which Neo4j Shell clients can log in to.
dbms.shell.enabled=true
# The network interface IP the shell will listen on (use 0.0.0.0 for all interfaces).
dbms.shell.host=0.0.0.0
# The port the shell will listen on, default is 1337.
#dbms.shell.port=1337
This is the changes I made, and I don't change anything anymore... The security is just for me to try first before I put the password
Does it work if you don't do the path config changes?
There is a hierarchy of directories under data which should not be destroyed
find data -type d
data
data/databases
data/databases/graph.db
data/databases/graph.db/index
data/databases/graph.db/profiles
data/dbms
The other data base has all the hierarchy directories because it was from the data directory in Neo4j 3.3.
And to answer your question, no.
Well, I re downloaded and re-install neo4j 3.4 with the hope that it will fix by itself. Now I have another issue, that the certificate directory is not there. My assumption is that it was genreated automatically, but it is not the case (I re-download and re-install 5 times to be exact now and no certificate directory from the community edition).
This is the log error:

Cleaning up partially generated self-signed certificate...```
I did not change anything on the config other than:
dbms.security.auth_enabled=false
dbms.connectors.default_listen_address=xx.xxx.x.xx #server ip
Just so that I can run it. I did not change the data dir this timeHow did you install it? When I untar and start neo4j-community-3.4.8-unix.tar.gz it has the two certificates in the directory.
Did you try to run it manually with bin/neo4j console to see if it starts up then?
Are the certs there on your file system? What about access permissions? E.g. for the user running the server?
Exactly how I wrote above. And the way I run it is by going into the directory, and run
bin/neo4j start
I don't think I have any problem with permission, my only confusion is when I untar it, I don't have the cert directory.
Hello!
I have the same the error Darius described.
And I use the docker image provided by neo: Docker
If I rollback to version 3.4.7 it works again.
Cheers
