在Docker中部署neo4j 后无法 Connect to Neo4j 问题

具体情况

1. 使用 docker 下载最新的 image: docker pull neo4j
2. 启动 neo4j

docker run --name neo4j-container \
    -d \
    --detach \
    --restart always \
    --env NEO4J_AUTH=neo4j/your_password  \
    --publish=7474:7474 --publish=7687:7687 \
    --volume=$HOME/neo4j/data:/data \
    --volume=$HOME/neo4j/logs:/logs \
    --volume=$HOME/neo4j/conf:/conf \
    --volume=$HOME/neo4j/import:/import \
    neo4j

3. 容器无限重启, 或无法 Connect to Neo4j

解决办法

1. 去掉--env NEO4J_AUTH=neo4j/your_password \启动:

docker run --name neo4j-container \
    -d \
    --detach \
    --restart always \
    --publish=7474:7474 --publish=7687:7687 \
    --volume=$HOME/neo4j/data:/data \
    --volume=$HOME/neo4j/logs:/logs \
    --volume=$HOME/neo4j/conf:/conf \
    --volume=$HOME/neo4j/import:/import \
    neo4j

2. 浏览器登录 http://localhost:7474/browser/
3. Username 和 Password 都填 neo4j
   
4. 输入新的密码即可
   

可能原因:

具体原因不明猜测可能是官方文档中的下面这个原因

Setting NEO4J_AUTH does not override the existing authentication.

If you have mounted a /data volume containing an existing database, setting will have no effect because that
database already has authentication configured. The Neo4j Docker
service will start, but you will need a username and password already
associated with the database to log in.NEO4J_AUTH

另外要注意的是, 如果你要挂载的话要先创建好文件夹, 不然也不行, 比如:

    --volume=$HOME/neo4j/data:/data \
    --volume=$HOME/neo4j/logs:/logs \
    --volume=$HOME/neo4j/conf:/conf \
    --volume=$HOME/neo4j/import:/import \

你要确保$HOME/neo4j/data文件夹已经创建好

The folders that you want to mount must exist before starting Docker,
otherwise, Neo4j fails to start due to permissions errors.
