Release Date: 2 September 2019
Neo4j 3.5.9 is a maintenance release with many important improvements and fixes.

Highlights

  • Fix bug that broke settings that used relative paths when using neo4j-admin backup
  • Solves a bug that produced wrong results for queries with VarExpand and a predicate that qualifies for solving during expansion containing a PatternComprehension
  • Monotonic time tracking for transaction termination monitor
  • Fixes bug in slotted runtime, when a property is read from index and then a node property of the same name is updated later in the query. E.g. MATCH (n:Label) WHERE n.prop > 0 WITH collect(n.prop) AS ns MATCH (n:Label) SET n.prop = 0
