How to close and re-open Spring Data Neo4J contexts without killing the VM

I'm running a spring data neo-4j application (not web based) which works fine during normal operation.

If I close the Spring Context 'ctx.close()' the lock on the neo 4J database goes away.

Then, from the same instance of the application, if I grab another Context I see the lock come back, but if I try and read / write from that database from that context I get an error:

org.springframework.beans.factory.UnsatisfiedDependencyException: Error creating bean with name 'org.springframework.data.neo4j.config.Neo4jConfiguration#0': Unsatisfied dependency expressed through bean property 'conversionService': : Error creating bean with name 'mappingInfrastructure' defined in class org.springframework.data.neo4j.config.Neo4jConfiguration: Instantiation of bean failed; nested exception is org.springframework.beans.factory.BeanDefinitionStoreException: Factory method [public final org.springframework.data.neo4j.support.MappingInfrastructureFactoryBean org.springframework.data.neo4j.config.Neo4jConfiguration$$EnhancerByCGLIB$$64cefd6f.mappingInfrastructure() throws java.lang.Exception] threw exception; nested exception is org.springframework.beans.factory.BeanCreationException: Error creating bean with name 'typeRepresentationStrategyFactory' defined in class org.springframework.data.neo4j.config.Neo4jConfiguration: Instantiation of bean failed; nested exception is org.springframework.beans.factory.BeanDefinitionStoreException: Factory method [public final org.springframework.data.neo4j.support.typerepresentation.TypeRepresentationStrategyFactory org.springframework.data.neo4j.config.Neo4jConfiguration$$EnhancerByCGLIB$$64cefd6f.typeRepresentationStrategyFactory() throws java.lang.Exception] threw exception; nested exception is org.springframework.beans.factory.BeanCreationException: Error creating bean with name 'graphDatabaseService': Instantiation of bean failed; nested exception is org.springframework.beans.BeanInstantiationException: Could not instantiate bean class [org.neo4j.kernel.EmbeddedGraphDatabase]: Constructor threw exception; nested exception is java.lang.IllegalStateException: Unable to lock store [C:\app_data\gelato\data\neostore], this is usually a result of some other Neo4j kernel running using the same store.; nested exception is org.springframework.beans.factory.BeanCreationException: Error creating bean with name 'mappingInfrastructure' defined in class org.springframework.data.neo4j.config.Neo4jConfiguration: Instantiation of bean failed; nested exception is org.springframework.beans.factory.BeanDefinitionStoreException: Factory method [public final org.springframework.data.neo4j.support.MappingInfrastructureFactoryBean org.springframework.data.neo4j.config.Neo4jConfiguration$$EnhancerByCGLIB$$64cefd6f.mappingInfrastructure() throws java.lang.Exception] threw exception; nested exception is org.springframework.beans.factory.BeanCreationException: Error creating bean with name 'typeRepresentationStrategyFactory' defined in class org.springframework.data.neo4j.config.Neo4jConfiguration: Instantiation of bean failed; nested exception is org.springframework.beans.factory.BeanDefinitionStoreException: Factory method [public final org.springframework.data.neo4j.support.typerepresentation.TypeRepresentationStrategyFactory org.springframework.data.neo4j.config.Neo4jConfiguration$$EnhancerByCGLIB$$64cefd6f.typeRepresentationStrategyFactory() throws java.lang.Exception] threw exception; nested exception is org.springframework.beans.factory.BeanCreationException: Error creating bean with name 'graphDatabaseService': Instantiation of bean failed; nested exception is org.springframework.beans.BeanInstantiationException: Could not instantiate bean class [org.neo4j.kernel.EmbeddedGraphDatabase]: Constructor threw exception; nested exception is java.lang.IllegalStateException: Unable to lock store [C:\app_data\gelato\data\neostore], this is usually a result of some other Neo4j kernel running using the same store.

Is there a way to successfully close and then re-open the Application Context within a single instance of an application (ie without shutting down the virtual machine) ?

I was initially calling shutdown() on the graph database, but changed this as Michael Hunger told me not to do it.

our problem can be reproduced in our domain like this.

AbstractApplicationContext ctx = new FileSystemXmlApplicationContext("neo4jconfig.xml");
OurDomainService domainService = (OurDomainService) ctx.getBean(OurDomainServiceImpl.class);
// This works
domainService.save(data);
// this releases the lock
ctx.close();
// this re-creates the lock and the context looks actvive
ctx = new FileSystemXmlApplicationContext("neo4jconfig.xml");
domainService = (OurDomainService) ctx.getBean(OurDomainServiceImpl.class);
// this errors out
domainService.save(data);

Here's the XML file we use to create the context.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="no"?>
<beans xmlns="http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans"
       xmlns:context="http://www.springframework.org/schema/context"
       xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
       xmlns:neo4j="http://www.springframework.org/schema/data/neo4j"
       xmlns:tx="http://www.springframework.org/schema/tx"

    <context:component-scan base-package="OurData" />

    <neo4j:repositories base-package="OurData"/>

</beans>

You shouldn't do that, in your case the spring-context should handle the lifecycle.

What happens when you restart in your case?

You shut down the application-context with

ctx.close()

You should probably use a WebApplicationContext(Utils) to get your configured Spring Context via your web.xml. Like this:

WebApplicationContext springContext = 
    WebApplicationContextUtils.getWebApplicationContext(getServletContext());
