Hi Mehdi,

You are trying to start a Neo4j server (version 3.1.4) with a graph.db folder of an other version (v0.A.9 was introduced in 3.4).

So you need to upgrade your neo4j server with a 3.4 version to beable to use your graph.db folder.

Cheers

Hi Benoit ,

Thanks for your quick answer 🙂
Is there any command to upgrade the neo4j server version ?

Normally you just have to run the upgrade command on your server : sudo apt-get upgrade

Know you have a permission problem, your user doesn't have access to some files in the folder /var/lib/neo4j/data/databases/graph.db.

Can you do a sudo chown -R majroud /var/lib/neo4j/data and try again.
Also, be sure that the Neo4j service is not already running.
