Why do I get a "Connection refused" error message?

This error indicates that the JOB client could not connect to the JOB server.

This could be for a number of reasons:
[1] The JOB server is not running on the specified machine.
[2] It is running, but it is listening on a different port to the one specified in the JDBC URL passed to the client. The default port is 8831. If no port is specified in the JDBC URL port 8831 is tried.
[3] The browser you are using to test your applet may be using a proxy server. You may need to change your browser's proxy settings so that the machine on which the JOB server is running does not run as a proxy server.
