How do I define my graph.db at a path other than under NEO4J_HOME for Windows
Commencing with Neo4j 3.0, the default location for your graph.db
directory is under $NEO4J_HOME\databases\
.
To change the path for the location of the database directory, edit the following parameters in the $NEO4J_HOME\conf\neo4j.conf
file
# The name of the database to mount
dbms.active_database=graph.db
# Paths of directories in the installation.
dbms.directories.data=C:/MyNeoDB/
The usage of the forward slash character (/) in the value for dbms.directories.data
is to be used and not the backslash (\) character which is what is typically used in Windows path names.
Using the above example the graph.db
will be recorded in C:\MyNeoDB\databases
and the directory will be named graph.db
.
