Neo4j-admin import - error

[flpgrz (Filippo Grazioli)]

Hi all,

I am using neo4j 4.4.1 Community Edition.

When I run neo4-admin import I get the following error:

Import error: Unable to open store file: /var/lib/neo4j/data/databases/neo4j/neostore

I know this is due to the fact that the database already exists, as explained here:

Facing FileLockException while using neo4j-admin import

I am using neo4j-admin import to read the csv and create nodes. While firing up the command for the import I am facing a file lock exception. My import csv file - movieId:ID,title,year:int,:LABEL tt0133093,"The Matrix",1999,Movie tt0234215,"The Matrix Reloaded",2003,Movie;Sequel tt0242653,"The Matrix Revolutions",2003,Movie;Sequel I have already tried to kill the process and still the problem pertains. Command while running the import - /bin/neo4j-admin import --nodes=test_new_import.csv …

Now, what can I do? I cannot create new graphs, not delete existing ones from cypher-shell, as I get the following error:

neo4j@neo4j> CREATE DATABASE proto_kg_1;
Unsupported administration command: CREATE DATABASE proto_kg_1

How can import a new graph if the existing one is locked, but I cannot delete it, not create a new one?
