I wrote server and client on Java using Netty.When i run client on my PC it works just fine. When i am trying to run client on other PC it throws me:

java.net.ConnectException: connection timed out
   at org.jboss.netty.channel.socket.nio.NioClientSocketPipelineSink$Boss.processConnectTimeout(NioClientSocketPipelineSink.java:391)

Check the connection parameters.

  • Is the server visible from another client? (try pinging the server from the client).
  • Are there any firewalls between? Try switching them off.
  • Check the connection string. Make sure you aren't connecting to localhost.
  • Check the server configuration. Does it listen on the proper network interface.

If you check everything and it seems OK. Post the network connection code here.

Happy coding :)
