[Neo4j] AppImages require FUSE to run

Question

I downloaded the AppImage file of the Neo4J desktop on my Ubuntu 22 machine. As suggested, I made the file executable using the following command:

chmod +x neo4j-desktop-1.5.6-x86_64.AppImage

However, when I try to run the AppImage file, it gives the following error, and the Neo4J desktop is not launched. How can I fix it?

dlopen(): error loading libfuse.so.2

AppImages require FUSE to run. 

You might still be able to extract the contents of this AppImage 

if you run it with the --appimage-extract option. 

Answer 1

There seems to be something wrong with the libfuse2 installation on your system. That's why it is giving error: dlopen(): error loading libfuse.so.2

Install libfuse2 by running the following command on the terminal, and it should fix the error:

sudo apt install libfuse2

 If it does not solve the problem, try to install the fuse too by running the following command on the terminal.

sudo apt install fuse
