Cannot create a db connection despite being able to ping and telnet the host

Tarun RathorJan 12 2016 — edited Jan 12 2016

Hello all,

I am trying to create an Oracle JDBC DB connection (from both JDeveloper and SQLDeveloper) but it fails with the error-

Test failed: IO Error: The Network Adapter could not establish the connection.

I am able to ping the host and also telnet to the host on the provided port(1521) successfully, which I think means there is no firewall issue. Also, my teammate is able to connect using the same(default) browser and proxy configurations in either of the tools.

Could anyone let me know the reason what might be the issue and how I can troubleshoot?

Regards,

Tarun
