Neo4j docker 4.4 image move to new server - can see data from shell and from browser, but application gets no data even though connects successfully

Hello,

I have what I think is a very strange issue.

I have a docker 4.4.4 community edition server with some data in it. I am decommishioning the cloud vm and switching providers. so I stopped the docker image on the original server, did a tar backup of the data folder, extracted it to the new server. re-created a docker image (using the same exact command as it was originally created with..

the new docker image starts up, I can connect to it via a shell into the image and query -- all the data is there - I can go to a web browser on port 7474 and again all the data is there.. And when I use my javascript (this is being made to support a web app I'm building) to connect to the new server (changing the IP address only -- neo4j/pass are the same) it says it connects, but all queries report 0 records returned (no errors, just no data is ever returned)

Help? Does anyone know why this is happening, and how to fix it? If not, how do I move the docker image to a new physical server?

Thanks in advance for any help you can provide,
