Summary
Fixes #1079
Neo4j 5.26+ throws
EquivalentSchemaRuleAlreadyExistserrors when creating indices in parallel, even withIF NOT EXISTSclause. This causes Docker Compose deployments to fail on startup.Changes
Neo4jDriver.execute_query()to catchneo4j.exceptions.ClientErrorEquivalentSchemaRuleAlreadyExistserror codeTechnical Details
The race condition occurs when multiple
CREATE INDEX IF NOT EXISTSqueries run concurrently viasemaphore_gatherinbuild_indices_and_constraints(). Neo4j 5.26+ returns an error even though the index creation succeeds.This solution follows the same pattern already implemented in the FalkorDB driver for handling "already indexed" errors (see
