Oracle JDBC Connection refused (only from jdbc code)


I'm getting Connection refused when I try to connect to a remote Oracle database.

I can successfully telnet to the same IP address and port and I can even connect via SQL Developer or IntelliJ Idea's Database tab using the same credentials, but when I try it from my code I get the exception.

Note: I'm Using Ubuntu, IntelliJ IDEA, Tomcat 7, Oracle JDBC Driver v7.0.

The following standalone code throws the same exception:

public static void main(String[] argv) {

    System.out.println("-------- Oracle JDBC Connection Testing ------");

    try {

        Class.forName("oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver");
    } catch (ClassNotFoundException e) {
        System.out.println("Where is your Oracle JDBC Driver?");
        e.printStackTrace();
        return;
    }

    System.out.println("Oracle JDBC Driver Registered!");

    Connection connection = null;

    try {
        connection = DriverManager.getConnection(
                "jdbc:oracle:thin:10.1.1.27:1521:xe", "user", "password");
    } catch (SQLException e) {
        System.out.println("Connection Failed! Check output console");
        e.printStackTrace();
        return;
    }

    if (connection != null) {
        System.out.println("You made it, take control your database now!");
    } else {
        System.out.println("Failed to make connection!");
    }
}

Output:

Oracle JDBC Driver Registered!

Connection Failed! Check output console

Solution

  • Replace you jdbc connect string "jdbc:oracle:thin:10.1.1.27:1521:xe" with "jdbc:oracle:thin:@10.1.1.27:1521/xe"
