Unable to connect to neo4j bolt server using container IP

[vchinnipilli]

Team,

I am trying to spin up neo4j container and neovis(node) container in a cloud server in the same network. The issue is when I provide the internal IP of the neo4j container for const driver = neo4j.driver('bolt://neo4jcontainerIP', neo4j.auth.basic('neo4j', 'password')); it cannot connect or fetch the data.

But when I provide a public IP of the host where neo4j is running const driver = neo4j.driver('bolt://publicIP', neo4j.auth.basic('neo4j', 'password')); it works without any issues

Can you please assist me how to pull the data into the neovis frontend using neo4j container IP?

const neo4j = require('neo4j-driver');

const driver = neo4j.driver('bolt://localhost', neo4j.auth.basic('neo4j', 'password'));

module.exports = driver;

Your help is greatly appreciated!!

Hi @vchinnipilli , if you are using AWS, can you please check if both the EC2 instances are in the same VPC and Availability zones ?

Hi Dominic,

Thank you very much for your reply. I have my containers running in the same vpc, same network and they can talk to each other. when I give public IP of my neo4j Db it is working without any issues in the browser using node application. But when I use the container IP, it doesn't load.
