JDBC connection FM8 vs FM9

I'm moving a java application to a new server.

I've been able to connect to a FM8 server using JDBC, but consistently fail connecting to a FM9 server using a similar url.

At first I assumed this was a problem with how the database is published, but according to the docs, everything is correct.

The error I get is: TCP/IP error, connection refused

I can ping the server and can open the file remotely from a FM client.

Any Ideas?

I've had similar problems with the FM 7/8/9 JDBC driver. I think it wound up being permissions problems on the xDBC folders on the server - try setting them to be all permissions for all users and see if that helps.

You're also welcome to try our free JDBC driver, WooF, which works very reliably with FileMaker Server 7,8, and 9.
