I'm having the following problem: When I try to createTcpServer with my external IP address (the PC's IP and not my local IP = the one we see as an output after running ipconfig in cmd.exe) the following error occurs:
Error with Server: Exception opening port "9092" (port may be in use), cause: "java.net.BindException: Cannot assign requested address: JVM_Bind" [90061-169]
However, the port is not in use. I've checked that using netstat -a -n . I have enabled my external IP and I have disabled the firewall from the router. My external IP can now be pinged.
Please help me.
Update: Here is my code to start the tcp server.
package businessApp;
import org.h2.tools.Server; //imports the server utility
public class startTcpServerForH2 {
Server server; //the server's instance variable
private static final String SERVER_IP = "192.168.1.101"; //fixed IP of the server
private static final String SERVER_PORT = "9092"; //fixed port the server is listening to
public void tcpServer() { //method responsible to create the tcp server
optionPane optPane = new optionPane(); //option pane for debugging purposes, shows the server's status
try { //catches any server related errors, if the connection is broken etc.
//server uses the IP and port defined earlier, allows other computers in the LAN to connect and implements the secure socket layer (SSL) feature
server = Server.createTcpServer( //create tcp server
new String[] { "-tcpPort" , SERVER_PORT , "-tcpAllowOthers" , "-tcpSSL" }).start();
System.out.println(server.getStatus()); //prints out the server's status
optPane.checkServerStatus(server.getStatus()); //prints out the server's status on the option pane as well
} catch(Exception ex){
System.out.println("Error with Server: " + ex.getMessage());
}
}
public static void main(String[] args){
startTcpServerForH2 tcpServ = new startTcpServerForH2(); //create a new server object
tcpServ.tcpServer(); //starts the tcp server
}
}
Second Update: here is the h2Connection code.
package businessApp;
import java.sql.*; //imports sql features
//Class responsible for connection with H2 Database Engine public class h2Connection {
Connection conn; //connection variable
DatabaseMetaData dbmd; /** Metadata variable which include methods such as the following:
* 1) Database Product Name
* 2) Database Product Version
* 3) URL where the database files are located (in TCP mode)
*/
Statement stm; //statements variable
ResultSet rst; //result sets variable
private static final String SERVER_IP = "..."; //here I enter my WAN_IP
private static final String SERVER_PORT = "9092";
public Connection connectionToH2(Connection connt) {
optionPane optPane = new optionPane(); //create new option pane object
String outputConn = null; //declare & initialize string which will hold important messages
try {
Class.forName("org.h2.Driver"); //Driver's name
/** The String URL is pertained of the following:
* 1) jdbc which java implements so that it can take advantage of the SQL features
* 2) Which Database Engine will be used
* 3) URL where the files will be stored (as this is a TCP connection)
* 4) Schema: businessApp
* 5) Auto server is true means that other computers can connect with the same databse at any time
* 6) Port number of the server is also defined
*/
String url = "jdbc:h2:tcp://" + SERVER_IP + ":" + SERVER_PORT + "/C:/Databases/businessApp;IFEXISTS=TRUE";
System.out.println(url); //prints out the url the database files are located as well as the h2 features used (SSL)
connt = DriverManager.getConnection(url, "sa", ""); //Driver Manager defines the username & password of the database
System.out.println(connt.getCatalog()); //prints out the database schema
optPane.checkServerStatus(connt.getCatalog()); //prints out the database schema on the option pane as well
connt.setAutoCommit(false); //set AutoCommit to false to control commit actions manually
//outputs H2 version and the URL of the database files which H2 is reading from, for confirmation
dbmd = connt.getMetaData(); //get MetaData to confirm connection
outputConn = "Connection to "+dbmd.getDatabaseProductName()+" "+
dbmd.getDatabaseProductVersion()+ " with the URL " + dbmd.getURL()+" was successful.\n";
System.out.println(outputConn); //outputs the message on the system (NetBeans compiler)
optPane.checkH2Connection(outputConn); //outputs the message on top of the frame
} catch (ClassNotFoundException ex){ //In case there is an error for creating the class for the Driver to be used
System.out.println("Error creating class: " + ex.getMessage());
} catch(SQLException ex){ //Any error associated with the Database Engine
System.out.println("SQL error: " + ex.getMessage());
optPane.checkServerStatus("SQL error: " + ex.getMessage());
}
return connt; //As the method is not void, a connection variable must be returned
}
}
When I want to connect to the h2 database, I make a new h2Connection object and use it to connect. I have followed the H2 manual word by word. What more do you need?
As suggested in the command line help shown below, Protection against Remote Access advises the following:
By default this database does not allow connections from other machines when starting the H2 Console, the TCP server, or the PG server. Remote access can be enabled using the command line options
-webAllowOthers,-tcpAllowOthers,-pgAllowOthers.
See the documentation for important caveats regarding these options.
Addendum: Works for me, as long as I restart the Server after opening the firewall; you don't need the setProperty() line at all; the LAN IP to which your WAN_IP forwards port 9092 should be your host IP address; then you can open a shell via your WAN_IP:
java -cp h2.jar org.h2.tools.Shell -url
jdbc:h2:tcp://WAN_IP/~/path/to/test;ifexists=true"
