I'm trying to access my redis database via Grafana Cloud on my laptop. The database is a redis container working as a cache on a different device (pi). Accessing the Redis database via Python script on my remote device is no problem but trying to connect to it via Grafana (using Redis Datasource Plugin) doesn't work as intended and throws a connection error. Poorly the documentation leaves me kinda clueless whats the specific cause (any missing plugin dependencies?) so I'm thankful for every hint.
To be able to access Redis Server from Grafana Cloud it should be exposed to the Internet as Jan mentioned.
If you run Grafana in Docker container it should be started in the host network mode (https://docs.docker.com/network/host/) to be able to access it from other devices.
If something is lacking or not clear in the Redis plugins documentation, please open an issue and we will update it: https://github.com/RedisGrafana/RedisGrafana/issues
I am having difficulties deploying Neo4j official docker image https://hub.docker.com/_/neo4j to an OpenShift environment and accessing it from outside (from my local machine)
I have performed the following steps:
oc new-app neo4j
Created route for port 7474
Set up the environment variable NEO4J_dbms_connector_bolt_listen__address to 0.0.0.0:7687 which is the equivalent of seting up the dbms.connector.bolt.listen_address=0.0.0.0:7687 in the neo4j.conf file.
Access the route url from local machine which will open the neo4j browser which requires authentication. At this point I am blocked because any combination of urls I try are unsuccessful.
As a workaround I have managed to forward 7687 port to my local machine, install Neo4j Desktop solution and connect via bolt://localhost:7687 but this is not the ideal solution.
Therefore there are two questions:
1. How can I connect from the neo4j browser to it's own database
How can I connect from external environment (trough OpenShift route) to the Neo4j DB
I have no experience with the OpenShift, but try to add the following config:
dbms.default_listen_address=0.0.0.0
Is there any other way for you to connect to Neo4j, so that you could further inspect the issue?
Short answer:
To connect to the DB that is most likely a configuration issue, maybe Tomaž Brataničs answer is the solution. As for accessing the DB from outside, you will most likely need a NodePort.
Long answer:
Note that OpenShift Routes are for HTTP / HTTPS traffic and not for any other kind of traffic. Typically, the "Routers" of an OpenShift cluster listen only on Port 80 and 443, so connecting to your database on any other port will most likely not work (although this heavily depends on your cluster configuration).
The solution for non-HTTP(S) traffic is to use NodePorts as described in the OpenShift documentation: https://docs.openshift.com/container-platform/3.11/dev_guide/expose_service/expose_internal_ip_nodeport.html
Note that also for NodePorts, you might need to have your cluster administrator add additional ports to the loadbalancer or you might need to connect to the OpenShift Nodes directly. Refer to the documentation on how to use NodePorts.
Today I download neo4j-community-3.2.0 in windows, when i start the server, i meet one problem in browser, i meet this problem in neo4j-community-3.1.2 and i had solved it by Ticking the "Do not use Bolt" option in settings solved the issue. But in neo4j-community-3.2.0 , i can't see "Do not use Bolt" option ,and i don't know how to do.
N/A: WebSocket connection failure. Due to security constraints in your web browser, the reason for the failure is not available to this Neo4j Driver. Please use your browsers development console to determine the root cause of the failure. Common reasons include the database being unavailable, using the wrong connection URL or temporary network problems. If you have enabled encryption, ensure your browser is configured to trust the certificate Neo4j is configured to use. WebSocket readyState is: 3
This happens because the browser is trying (under the hood) to also access the bolt port, which uses an unsigned certificate.
You probably allowed the browser to access the SSL 7474 port through allowing the unsigned certificate as an exception on your browser (and if you didn't, you should in order to make it work).
The url was:
https://[neo4j_host]:7474
Do the same for the bolt certificate, allow it as an exception for url:
https://[neo4j_host]:7687
I ran into the same problem trying to use Neo4j Community Edition on an AWS Ubuntu 16.04 instance. The key thing that solved it was to open port 7687 (the bolt port) in the AWS security group settings.
Found this based on https://stackoverflow.com/a/45234105/1529646
Thus, full answer is:
Make sure to configure Neo4j correctly, ie. uncomment the line dbms.connectors.default_listen_address=0.0.0.0 AND the line dbms.connector.bolt.listen_address=:7687
Open ports 7474 AND 7687 in the AWS security group settings.
In the lower left corner of the browser gear, select do not use bolt.
Open your ${NEO4J_HOME}/conf/neo4j.conf file and edit the bolt settings. It is just about uncommenting this line dbms.connector.bolt.address=0.0.0.0:7687
Change the version of Neo4j
Check your JDK version, use JDK1.8
Adding another option, which worked for me. If your bolt's tls_level is set to REQUIRED, you need to change it to OPTIONAL, if you are not using it with SSL certificate; to get this working.
If you are using Neo4J Community Edition (ver 3.5.1 - in my case) from AWS Marketplace, you need to change the configuration in:
/etc/neo4j/pre-neo4j.sh
Change this line:
echo "dbms_connector_bolt_tls_level" "${dbms_connector_bolt_tls_level:=REQUIRED}"
to
echo "dbms_connector_bolt_tls_level" "${dbms_connector_bolt_tls_level:=OPTIONAL}"
You can find more about Neo4J connector configuration option here. Ideally as per docs, by default bolt.tls_level should have been OPTIONAL only. But I'm not really sure what exactly happened in my case, which got it changed to REQUIRED. Or if it came as is from AWS Marketplace.
Assuming you have valid certs and placed them under the correct certificates directory:
dbms.ssl.policy.bolt.client_auth=NONE
Version 4.0. Took it from this article.
I shared my full ssl config on this other answer.
I had the same error. New to Neo, so take this with a grain of salt, but my solution didn't match these above idea. But thanks as they did lead me to the right "water". So
I went into the conf file, noticed that there was the same port number (previously, the Neo desktop had been constantly telling me it'd needed to update the port numbers...I never checked to verity, but they'd be #, #+1 and #+2. But that didn't work yet that'd happened again and again...but now, after checking the conf file myself, I noticed that the number was the same for all three port requirements for BOLT. Tried that and it didn't work either...but maybe that was important in what did:
In the folder, where the specific database is housed, named "..neo4jdatabases/[GUID Value]" there were two directories titled "/installation-3.4.0" and "...1". I removed the ".0", restarted things and IT WORKED.
So, either there should NOT be two versions under the same database collection OR that's true AND you need the three ports to be the same.
Final add for any Neo4j experts who actually know what they're doing, I have three databases running, two without issue. This occurred AFTER I was messing around trying to see how PowerShell might be useful. Not sure if this is related, but the other databases have worked fine...but, this db is the original playground/sandbox I'd had since the beginning. Not 100% sure, I made the version update before or after, creating the other two databases. HTH.
Using a windows trial version on a Windows 10 machine. Current N4j version is 3.4.1.
Do love what I see so far with Neo BTW!!!
Please mention the correct bolt port under the Connect URL textbox.if you are using the service port the mention the service port in place of bolt port.
Then finally I resolve it by replacing the bolt port with service port inside k8s.
user: neo4j
password: neo4j
I resolve this error by replace the port 7687 with node port 30033 inside Neo4j
then it works fine.
I was facing the same issue with Neo4J version 4 installed on an Ubuntu 18 EC2 instance. Tthe workaround that did the trick for me was to replace the 0.0.0.0 entries in /etc/neo4j/neo4j.conf with the actual private IP of my instance.
Following are the lines where the replace happened:
dbms.default_listen_address=172.X.X.232
dbms.connector.bolt.address=172.X.X.232:7687
Post restart of the DB, the Connect URL when accessing from browser should also use the private IP instead of localhost.
For my upcoming bachelor's thesis I want to develop a tool that collects system and application data from Apache Flink and sends this data in some kind of "events" to another system. This tool will be installed on Flink job- and taskmanager nodes. Beside data from linux system utilities like dstat I would like to collect JMX data.
My problem is, that I couldn't figure out how to connect via remote JMX connection by using a port to Flinks jobmanager. Although the collector will be on the same machine, I really try to avoid using a --javaagent to access JMX data of Flink's JVM.
Another problem is, I have a local docker setup based on https://github.com/apache/flink/tree/master/flink-contrib/docker-flink and updated to flink-1.0.2, that I cannot connect via jconsole because I don't know how to "open" a JMX remote port for the job- and taskmanager.
Is there any way to achieve this?
Thanks in advance, any ideas very appreciated.
Solved!
I needed to add env.java.opts: -Dcom.sun.management.jmxremote
-Dcom.sun.management.jmxremote.port=9999
-Dcom.sun.management.jmxremote.authenticate=false
-Dcom.sun.management.jmxremote.ssl=false
in flink-conf.yaml.
No it's possible to connect the jobmanager via jconsole.
Ive got a magent2 docker VM running - all working well. The only issue is I cant seem to figure out how to conenct to the DB via Sequel Pro...
Im using nginx/php7.0/mariaDB images with Dinghy/Docker/Virtualbox.
Pretty new to docker so if you could give me a hand connection to the DB via sequel pro will be much appreciated.
Thanks
You need to override the my.cnf bind-address values to bind to either a network adapter or all adapters via 0.0.0.0
