RemoteConnectFailureException

[vikrant1]

I am currently experimenting with spring rmi. Sever side everything is working fine. However when I execute the client class which calls the remote service method, I get the following:

Exception in thread "main" org.springframework.remoting.RemoteConnectFailureException: Cannot connect to remote service [rmi://localhost:1099/CurrencyConverter]; nested exception is java.rmi.ConnectException: Connection refused to host: 81.107.98.43; nested exception is:

Try the following on the client machine and see if it is successful

ftp <server ip/name> <rmi port>

If this fails to connect then it is a network issue else it is your code issue.
