The exception you get is because another server is running.

Also, there is another exception, you don't have write access in the folder for the logs.

  1. Check if http://localhost:7474 is displaying the neo4j web browser.

If yes, locate the location of the running database :

Then go to the location and stop the db, eg based on the image :

cd /Users/cw/_graphs/tests
./bin/neo4j stop

If it is not working, try to kill the process :

sudo htop

enter image description here

kill -9 10522

And try to run your new database. And make sure you have the right permissions for the stores and logs.
