Looking closer at your error message:

"The selected target store format 'AF4.3.0' (introduced in 4.3.0) is no longer supported".

You probably need to run something like neo4j-admin database migrate "*"

Thanks. I did it. I have to reset the password for neo4j after that but dents work. The next step was purge neo4j and install again. This works and now I can run bloodhound.

I'm closing this as it seems to be fixed, and not caused by the package
