Distance between points along line

Question

How do I determine the distance between points to the neighbor point that connected via the line(road)?

In QGIS 3.8.3 I have tried v.distance and v.net.distance but they do not help.

The line(roads) I extract from Quick OSM.

The intersection from Line Intersection features from QGIS

For example, I want the distance between the point
'718367168' to '428716812',
'718367168' to '718367169',
and so on.

With exception '718367168' to '672464081' cause not connected via a line(road)

The layer Nearest and Distance is a fail one

Main question: are points snap to lines? Do you need a distance to each of the possible clothest points connected via lines? Thus '718367168' will have only three neighbours, am I right? — Taras, Oct 18, 2019 at 7:19
You could split your lines where your points intersect the roads and simply measure the new road-segments with $length .If you already downloaded osm data, why dont you try out the ors-tool plugins.qgis.org/plugins/ORStools — DirkB., Oct 18, 2019 at 8:16
@Taras thank you for edited the question! Yes the points snap to lines because it's intersection between the lines but different layer, and yes '718367168' will have only 3 neighbours. What i want to generate is not only the distance to clothest points, but to all 3 points. — Lysander Gustin, Oct 18, 2019 at 9:24
@DirkB. it will take a lot of time if simple measure the length one by one. how to use ORStools? is it isochrones? — Lysander Gustin, Oct 18, 2019 at 9:54
Yes, you can calculate the length with field calculator once for all at the same time. But you need to split your roads into segements from a to b before. — DirkB., Oct 18, 2019 at 11:31

You can try Shortest Path:

Processing toolbox > Network Analysis > Shortest Path

There are different options I guess yours is Point to point

I tried that too, the Point option is not the point layer, and will take a really long time because the total intersection point is 580
