Android Question RDC issues

[gjoisa]

Very much in need if server app and trying to RDCsince 3 days . Getting the things slowly referring Erel's tutorial http://www.b4x.com/android/forum/threads/remote-database-connector-connect-to-any-remote-db.31540/ and
http://www.b4x.com/android/forum/threads/rdc-simple-way-to-create-your-own-back-end-database.31616/ .
Still I am facing some issues .

Framework Setup

1. Unpack the server zip file.
2. You will need to download the driver for your database platform and copy the jar file to jdbc_driver folder.
3. Edit config.properties as discussed above.
4. Edit RunRLC.bat and set the path to java.exe. If you are running it on Linux then you need to create a similar script with the path to java. On Linux you should change the ';' separator to ':'.
5. Run the server
   You should see something like:
   
   
   
   
   Note that the path to config.properties is printed in the second line.

Up to this stage every thing is OK.

Do you have port forwarding enabled in your router on 17178 to the PC?

Does a local test request work? If yes then it is a firewall or router issue.

Make sure that the firewall port is open for incoming connections and that the port forwarding is defined in the router setup.

Either RDC is not running or it is listening to a different port.
