B4J Question jRDC2 connection via linux server

[Vincent11111]

Hi i have a problem connecting my jRDC2 connector in my linux server to my b4a app.

In my CentosOS 7
i run my jrdc2
and open my server port using :
sudo iptables -I INPUT -p tcp -m tcp --dport 17170 -j ACCEPT

then
curl http://xxx.xxx.xxx.xx:17170/test
and get an output

RemoteServer is running (03/30/2021 06:22:32)<br/>Connection successful.-sh-4.2$

but when i run through my windows browser i get an error :
This site can’t be reached
xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx took too long to respond.


Try:

• Checking the connection
• Checking the proxy and the firewall
• Running Windows Network Diagnostics

ERR_CONNECTION_TIMED_OUT


and when i run my b4a app i get an error :

ERROR: java.net.SocketTimeoutException: failed to connect to /xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx (port 17170) from /172.16.0.167 (port 37550) after 30000ms

what should i do?

You should open the port on your server.

A TCP/IP network connection may be either blocked, dropped, open, or filtered. These actions are generally controlled by the IPtables firewall the system uses and is independent of any process or program that may be listening on a network port. This post will outline the steps to open a port...

You should open port 17170

You should open port 17170

I've done that, but its same output again.

This error means that you are running multiple instances of jRDC2 and the socket is already held by the previous one.

Find all java processes and kill them: ps -ef | grep java
kill <pid number>

I kill all the java process and remain one process running
but it's connection refused. output

Restart the server and run a single one.

You can then test it with curl 127.0.0.1:17170/test

The result is fine

RemoteServer is running (03/30/2021 06:22:32)<br/>Connection successful.-sh-4.2$

But i can't connect to my b4a apk

ERROR: java.net.SocketTimeoutException: failed to connect to /xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx (port 17170) from /172.16.0.167 (port 37550) after 30000ms

If you can connect to the server from the localhost and can't connect from a remote device then either:
1. IP is wrong.
2. Server firewall is blocking the incoming connection.

I have the same problem. The test work OK.
Access In web browser is ok.
But from the android app can't connect.

Start a new thread and give us some more info. Where is the server installed (IP, if possible). What machine did you run the test access from (IP again). What is the IP for the phone you are using for testing? What URL are you using in the app? Etc..
