Hi,

I have a problem connecting to a database using JDBC. I use the thin driver. I can connect to the database using SQLPlus. When I start the following program an SQLException is thrown:
"java.sql.SQLException: E/A-Exception: The Network Adaper could not establish the connection"
The simple propgram for testing is:

---

import java.sql.*;

public class Applik1
{

	public static void main(String[] args)
		throws ClassNotFoundException, SQLException
	{
		Class.forName("oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver");
		
		String user 	= "scott";
		String password = "tiger";
		String database = "MeineDB";
		Connection conn = 

DriverManager.getConnection("jdbc:oracle:thin:@notebook:1521:" + database, user, password);

        }
}

---

I use Win XP. "notebook" is the name of the computer (do I have to use something different ? It also doesn't work with "127.0.0.1"). The listener is started. Firewall is disabled. I searched the net for several hours now but couldn't find a solution. I would be very grateful if someone could give me a hint.
