Neo won't start with remote access turned on after upgrading to 3.0.0

Question

I've upgraded to Neo4j Community Edition 3.0.0 on a Windows server. The database upgraded fine and all looks OK on the server.

The firewall settings are same as before, port 7474 open.

When I uncommented this...

# To have HTTP accept non-local connections, uncomment this line:
dbms.connector.http.address=0.0.0.0:#{default.http.port}

... the database won't start, it gives me the 'In just a few seconds Neo will be ready' message but never actually starts.

Remote access was enabled previously on the same database.

Any ideas gratefully received.

Answer 1

I got my instance of neo4j running by modifying the config to be

dbms.connector.http.address=0.0.0.0:7474
