Database failed to create: Error: EISDIR: illegal operation on a directory #50

Closed MichaelRBlack closed 5 years ago

MichaelRBlack commented 5 years ago

I'm trying to create a new local graph and I'm getting the following error:

Database failed to create: Error: EISDIR: illegal operation on a directory, open 'C:\Users\mblack\.Neo4jDesktop\neo4jDatabases\database-2c261a08-97b8-4798-a04d-7a7b5c028c84\installation-3.5.3\data'

I'm trying to install the latest version 3.5.3 which I have never done before, but I have found that I can create a v3.5.2 graph because I assume it's the version Neo4j Desktop came shipped with.

I've tried uninstalling Neo4j Desktop, deleting and Neo4j files on my computer that I could find, reinstalling desktop but the problem persists.

I just tried this on a different computer and observed the same bug.

i have exactly the same error upgrading from 3.5.2. to .3.5.3 Failed to upgrade database: Error: EISDIR: illegal operation on a directory, open 'C:\Users\xxx\.Neo4jDesktop\neo4jDatabases\database-ffca7d5a-b65a-45b9-ab6d-3c15cc302390\installation-3.5.3\data'

I tried it with and without a database with same result.. i did not check the auto migrate database option and my conf file allows auto upgrad from prev versions ..

Any clues

Thanks Koen

@MichaelRBlack the neo4j of 3.5.3 has some issues on Windows, We have implemented a fix for that in Neo4j Desktop, which will roll out somewhere around next week. Please use a different neo4j version for now. Once you'll get the Desktop update - this issue will be fixed.

@kdwykleingeld Yes, this is the right place to report issues :) We are really sorry that we reply to your questions not too often. We will do our best.

In case if there is a super urgent issue - you could also use the community portal or get in touch with the development or support team in slack
