Re: Neo4j Grails plugin 1.0.0.M1, Grails 2.1.1: application will not start

[aldrinm]

you may need to add the db config on DataSource.groovy,

grails {
    neo4j {
        type = "embedded"
        location = "/var/neo4j"
        params = []
    }
}

This is my sequence of commands for setting up the Grails app and the error that happens when running the app is shown at the bottom:

Is there possibly a step I've overlooked?

That fixed the problem. Thank you. The only thing I changed was the location to be "data/neo4j". /var does not give my login user write permissions.
