Windows socket error: (10061), on API 'connect'

[Torben Hansen]

I am trying to make a "socketConnection" to at server app.
I browse for the host-name, OK, and then i clik on server, and after approx.
2 sec. following error pops-up

Windows socket error: (10061), on API 'connect'

The server and klient is on my local NT server, where the development also
takes place.

What can be the problem here ???

Is scktsrvr running on the server machine (or scktsrvc service installed)?

No, Why should it ?? I had created my own server, or at least tryed, but
did'nt work either.

But if i start the scktsrvr, then my client works. My problem is now, the i
can't se my own socket-server, is there any kind of registration is miss ??

My socket-server is allmost a copy of C:\Program
Files\Borland\Delphi5\Demos\Midas\Login, only diff. is that the query is
against my own table.

ScktSrvr is different from your server application. Scktsrvr allows your
client app to connect to your server app. It needs to be running so your
client can make the connection to the server end.

more info to your error message:

WSAECONNREFUSED

(10061)

Connection refused.

No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused
it. This usually results from trying to connect to a service that is
inactive on the foreign host - i.e. one with no server application
running.
