Issues with exporting Neo4j 3.2.2 Graph to Gephi 0.9.1

As there is no Neo4j plugin for Grephi 0.9.1 I tried to export my Neo4j graph as an .graphml file. I created an empty .graphml file in Grephi and used the procedure: 

call apoc.export.graphml.all('file:C:/test.graphml',{})

However I recieve:

Failed to invoke procedure `apoc.export.graphml.all`: Caused by: java.io.FileNotFoundException: file:C:\test.graphml (Syntax of filename, directory or harddrive is wrong)

in the neo4j.conf file I added before:

apoc.export.file.enabled=true
apoc.import.file.enabled=true

Any ideas?

Solution

  • I found helpful information here:

    http://grokbase.com/t/gg/neo4j/15397fjvyy/export-graphml

    "import-graphml can read from an URL but as you can't write to an URL the export only supports normal path syntax"

    so this worked for me:

    call apoc.export.graphml.all('C:/test.graphml',{})
