Network error IOException: Connection refuse

Djédjé26Mar 20 2009 — edited Mar 23 2009
Hello everybody,

I have a database SQL Server 2005 on a server and Oracle SQL Developer on my computer.

I try to connect with Oracle SQL developer to the database SQL Server 2005 but I have this error:
Status : Failure -Network error IOException: Connection refused: connect_*

However, on my computer, I have SQL Server 2008 and the connection on database SQL Server 2005 of server with SQL Server Management Studio is a success ...

I have already tried:

1) Close SQL Developer
2) Create a sqldeveloper.cmd file in the SQL Developer root directory
3) With the following contents
SET ORACLE_HOME=%CD%
start sqldeveloper.exe
4) Run sqldeveloper.cmd

I downloaded [this driver|http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=33291&package_id=25350&release_id=534076] and I selected it in Tools - Preferences - Database - Third Party JDBC Driver but the connection is not a success.

Have you got an idea ?
