Help with Remote Connection

Hello

New to Jdeveloper and Oracle. I need help with the following:

I have Installed Oracle 11g Express Edition on a windows VPS. Instalation went smoothly.

I have jdeveloper installed on my personal PC and I am trying to access and establish a connection to the Oracle Database on the windows VPS but I am getting the following error: Test failed: IO Error: The Network Adapter could not establish the connection.

I would appreciate any help on the matter.

Thank you

Test if you can ping the VPS machine.

If yes try to connect with e.g. SQL Developer.

Show us hte connect string you use (without the password)

I can't ping the VPS. I get Request timed out, but I do know its online because I can RDP to it. Could it be a firewall issue?

Might be. As long as you can't ping the machine I guess you can't connect.

Hi user

turn off your system fire wall

then open your system's command prompt and ping to server

if it pinged then establish your connection
