ORA-12514 error when connecting from SQL Developer (Windows) to VM 23c Free DB

Nasar Ali-KhanApr 17 2023 — edited Apr 17 2023

I have installed Virtualbox and imported the new Oracle 23c database Free-Developer release vm.

It works fine when I connect it from the browser in my windows 10. I can connect using http://localhost:8080/ords or http://localhost:8080/ords/sql-developer

But when I try to connect through the SQL Developer in my Windows 10, then I get the following error -

Status : Failure -Test failed: Listener refused the connection with the following error:
ORA-12514, TNS:listener does not currently know of service requested in connect descriptor
(CONNECTION_ID=PHsKtiGKS0qOraZgy1cb/Q==)

In SQL Developer, I am using host=localhost, port=1521, ServiceName=freepdb1 user=hr , also tried user=system

Any idea what am I missing here?
