Hi all,

I have the code below...see bottom of thread

I am using netbeans 6.9, if i just run the file as is, it connects to the DB and disconnects just fine. However, if i create an instance of this class from within another class and call the QueryDB() method, i get this error:

com.microsoft.sqlserver.jdbc.SQLServerException: The TCP/IP connection to the host XXXXXX, port 1433 has failed. Error: "Malformed reply from SOCKS server. Verify the connection properties, check that an instance of SQL Server is running on the host and accepting TCP/IP connections at the port, and that no firewall is blocking TCP connections to the port."

I am comletely stumped..the connection code obviously works, but only when called from the files main method, but not from outside the class?
public class DB_Connection {

private java.sql.Connection con = null;
private final String url = "jdbc:sqlserver://XXXXXXX:1433;databaseName=XXXX;integratedSecurity=true";

private final String selectMethod = "cursor";


public DB_Connection(){}


public java.sql.Connection getConnection(){
try{
Class.forName("com.microsoft.sqlserver.jdbc.SQLServerDriver");
con = java.sql.DriverManager.getConnection(url);
if(con!=null) System.out.println("DB connected...");
}catch(Exception e){
System.out.println("Error Trace in getConnection() : " + e.toString());
}
return con;
}



public void QueryDB({

con = this.getConnection();

try{

if(con!=null){

closeConnection();

}else System.out.println("Error: No active Connection");

}catch(Exception e){}


}


public void closeConnection(){
try{

if(con!=null)
con.close();
con=null;
System.out.println("DB disconnected.");

}catch(Exception e){}

}


public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {

DB_Connection myDbTest = new DB_Connection();
myDbTest.QueryDB();

}

}


 
Are you executing both inside NetBeans? Maybe it's a problem with firewall permissions

Cheers,

Hi Dian,

When it works i am using 'Run file' option within netbeans just to run that java file. When it does NOT work i am running the whole application after a clean and build. Does this off anymore clues?

 
Wrong version of the jdbc driver in your class-path?
