I met the problem just like what “Struggle to do `A bigger dataset` with docker-compose” said.  
I’m on linux, not docker. When I load the rdf.file like:

```auto
dgraph live -r dgraph/N_quads.rdf.gz -s dgraph/N_quads.schema.gz -z 5080 -d localhost:9080

```

then I get:

```auto
Total Txns done: 0 RDFs per second: 0 Time Elapsed: 2s, Aborts: 0
Total Txns done: 0 RDFs per second: 0 Time Elapsed: 4s, Aborts: 0

2018/01/19 18:57:39 zero.go:29: Could not dial zero at address "5080": context deadline exceeded
2018/01/19 18:57:39 xidmap.go:110: Error while getting lease: Failed to obtain zero leader after trying all connections

```

But I run state query to zero(6080) and health query to server(8080), it said OK.  
SO what’s wrong here? What should I do?

You need to give the full address for Dgraph Zero, so try `-z localhost:5080`. We have made the error message better in `v1.0.2`.
