Neo4j - Does the index exist or not?

I'm having a frustrating problem; I have a database containing nodes with a label 'ABC'. I tried these two cypher queries:

MATCH (n:ABC)
USING INDEX n:ABC(ENTITY)
WHERE n.ENTITY = 'John Lennon'
RETURN n;

This one works fine. The second one, however, does not.

START n = node:ABC(ENTITY='John Lennon') RETURN n;

Where I get an error, Neo.ClientError.Schema.NoSuchIndex. I don't understand why?

You're mixing legacy indexes (2) and schema indexes (1).

Stick with schema indexes (1) - you don't even have to specify them.

Ignore legacy indexes if you don't have to do fulltext-search.
