According to https://neo4j-contrib.github.io/neo4j-apoc-procedures/, one only needs to download the binary jar from http://github.com/neo4j-contrib/neo4j-apoc-procedures/re
I'm using Red Hat Linux specifically Oracle-7 and here is how I got it working
/var/lib/neo4j/plugins
directorychown neo4j:neo4j apoc-<version>.jar
chmod 755 apoc-<version>.jar
/etc/neo4j/neo4j.conf
and replace the line #dbms.security.procedures.whitelist=apoc.coll.*,apoc.load.*
with dbms.security.procedures.whitelist=apoc.coll.*,apoc.load.*,apoc.*
and save it.systemctl restart neo4j
Note: Make sure that you have the right version of apoc jar downloaded. I'm using the neo4j version 3.5.5
and the apoc jar version I'm using is apoc-3.5.0.3-all.jar
. Alos make sure that you have the dbms.directories.plugins=/var/lib/neo4j/plugins
uncommented in the /etc/neo4j/neo4j.conf
If you installed neo4j using a Windows or Mac installer (which most people do), and not from a zip or tar file, then the plugins
folder should be in your database folder, not in your neo4j installation folder.
