Newbie: Can't connect to database using browser

Question

Recently installed Neo4J on a Raspberry Pi on a docker container (portainer). Everything seems to working fine. I can open a terminal in Portainer and run commands. I can see there are two DB and I can even run Cypher commands (cut and pasted the Movie entries). But I'm not able to run any commands using the browser. I seem to be able to connect the browser (http://localhost:7474/browser/) and see the ":play movie-graph" run. But when I try to run the query to enter movie data, I get the following error: "ERROR: Neo.DatabaseError.General.UnknownError" Running :sysinfo doesn't return any results. Also the cursor is $ as opposed to a DB name. And don't see any databases in the Database menu on the left.

Again, I'm able to run queries using Cypher Shell through a Portainer terminal.

Here are the container details:

I'm sure it is something silly I'm missing, but reading multiple forum comments haven't help. Any help would be appreciated.

Thank you.

When you load the neo4jbrowser from your internet browser at:

http://localhost:7474/browser

, you need to connect to the bolt advertised address of your neo4j server at:

bolt://localhost:7687
