Error Connecting to port 3003 - coldfusion

I am trying to connect to a DB.
But I get an error:
Connection verification failed for data source: dwh_trgt_care
java.sql.SQLNonTransientConnectionException: [Macromedia][SQLServer JDBC Driver]Error establishing socket to host and port: pasdwdb01:3003. Reason: Connection refused: connect
The root cause was that: java.sql.SQLNonTransientConnectionException: [Macromedia][SQLServer JDBC Driver]Error establishing socket to host and port: pasdwdb01:3003. Reason: Connection refused: connect
I can't figure out why it thinks it should be connecting to 3003
Addendum
This is the first time I have connected to and SQL Server 2008 R2

When using a SQL named instance, SQL server will negotiate communications over a dynamically assigned port by default. It can also be configured to use a specified port however.
See this related question/answer - port number of SQL Server
Also this - Configure a Server to Listen on a Specific TCP Port (SQL Server Configuration Manager)
If enabled, the default instance of the SQL Server Database Engine listens on TCP port 1433. Named instances of the Database Engine and SQL Server Compact are configured for dynamic ports. This means they select an available port when the SQL Server service is started.
If you do need to open up a port on your firewall then you might want to assign a specific port instead of opening up a range of ports.

Connect to MySQL on Google Compute Engine from App Engine and externally

I successfully created a Compute Engine VM instance, and installed MySQL on it using this guide:
https://cloud.google.com/solutions/setup-mysql
Now I want to connect to it from App Engine and from my home too if possible.
Using this guide: https://cloud.google.com/appengine/docs/standard/python/connecting-vpc
I created the connector, giving it the suggested 10.x.x.x/28 IP address.
In my app engine's app.yaml I inserted:
vpc_access_connector:
name: projects/xxxxxxxxxx/locations/europe-west3/conectors/xxxxxx
The VM instance shows an internal IP of 10.x.x.x and an external IP of 34.x.x.x
I am trying to connect from PHP using this line:
new mysqli($servername, $username, $password, $dbname, 3306, null);
but I get different errors.
When connecting to 34.x.x.x from my home:
mysqli::__construct(): (HY000/2002): No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it.
(I even created a Firewall rule to allow all traffic from my home IP)
When connecting to10.x.x.x from app engine:
2002: Connection timed out
When connecting to 10.x.x.x from app engine:
2002: Connection refused
How can I make a connection?
My first guess is that the service inside the instance is not up and running, check if the service of MySQL is running and listening, you can try this by doing a nmap test vs. the public IP of your MySQL VM instance nmap 34.0.0.0. You should see something like this (if you are using the standard port):
PORT STATE SERVICE
22/tcp open ssh
80/tcp closed http
443/tcp closed https
3306/tcp open mysql
Remember that there are two firewalls you need to take care of on GCP, (VPC firewall & OS firewall). So if you are not able to see this port start the SQL service by connecting into your VM instance and typing sudo systemctl start mysql, now run again nmap 34.0.0.0 and you should see the service.
To connect from App Engine to MySQL on Compute Engine VM instance just follow this other guide .
To connect from your home It will be better for you to connect to the instance via SSH and then to access your database, or you can keep connecting by a VPN to access it with the internal IP address if you need to connect directly to the socket, just take care to avoid hitting the limitations or missing something like IAM roles and permission needed for this connection.

Google Cloud Compute Engine refusing connections despite firewall rule

I'm trying to setup a VNC server on my GCE instance running debian. Normally I connect over SSH, but I need a graphical interface for some other use cases. I have a very basic firewall rule that looks like this
But when I use netcat to check the external IP on port 5901 I get that the connection is refused. Checking a port like 22 works, but none of the other ones let me connect. Am I missing a step here?
The most common problem related to your issue is that the application / server is configured for localhost or 127.0.0.1, which means accept connections only on the local machine. You need to bind with 0.0.0.0 which means listen on all available networks.
When connecting from the public network (outside your system) Connection refused means that nobody is listening. This is not a firewall rule issue as the error message indicates that the connection is not being blocked (no response) versus refused (permission denied).
Connect to your instance via SSH. Then run this command: netstat -a. Look for a line that says LISTENING on your port number. Then look at the IP address. If it shows 127.0.0.1, this is your problem. If you do not see your port number in LISTENING state, then you do not have a process listening on that port.

Tableau desktop not connecting to DB server on AWS instance

My postgres DB is in AWS instance running windows server 2012.
My tableau desktop is in local machine.
While connecting to the DB using external instance IP and default postgres PORT 5432 , it shows the error
Unable to connect to the ODBC Data Source.
Check that the necessary drivers are installed and that the connection properties are valid.
Unable to connect to the server "ec2-xx.xx.xx.xx.ap-south-1.compute.amazonaws.com".
Check that the server is running and that you have access privileges to the requested database.
I have made sure that:
AWS security group is configured for all incoming ports
Windows server 2012 firewall is accepting all inbound traffic.
My local desktop is allowing to send traffic to remote server.And I can telnet hostIP/hostname PORT successfully.
Postgres service is running on 5432 port.
Going by the points you mentioned, I would suggest to see if you have the required drivers installed for postgres. Also, if possible for you for the time being you can install any client temporarily like sqldeveloper(later you can remove this) on the tableau desktop.
Now because you are able to telnet Ip 5432, you can test your connection from the client, If this doesnt work u know that the problem is in configuration else we need to dig more into that.
It seems like I have not set the pg_hba.conf file correctly for postgres. Allowing the connection request from all external IPs let me resolve the issue.
Adding the line at the end of the file,
host all postgres 0.0.0.0 md5

Connecting to Amazon AWS TimeOut Error

I'm trying to connect to a Redshift instance. If I use psycopg2 to test the connection and grab a simple query, I get a:
psycopg2.OperationalError: could not connect to server: Operation timed ouT
Is the server running on host "THE_HOST" (10.0.21.77) and accepting
TCP/IP connections on port 5432?
I have no idea how to diagnose this. My router is set to 192.168.0.1 rather than the 10.0.0.1 config. I'm not sure what I need to pass to make this happen...
Edits: I'm connecting through a VPN. I know the redshift cluster accepts incoming connections over this VPN. I can also connect to the cluster through pgAdminIII or SQLWorkbench

Amazon EC2 HTTP connection refused, but HTTP port is open

I created a new Ubuntu T2 Micro instance on EC2.
Created a new Elastic IP and selected "EIP used in: VPC"
Associated the address to my new EC2 Ubuntu instance.
I now have a Private IP and a Public/Elastic IP. No Public DNS.
My security group has SSH port 22 and HTTP port 80 open.
I can connect to the instance just fine through SSH using the Public IP, but when I try to browse to the Public IP through the browser it says connection refused. I can't ping it either.
I'm out of ideas.
Amazon EC2 HTTP connection refused, but HTTP port is open
That's already proven by the fact that you got 'connection refused'. If the port wasn't open it would have been 'connect timeout'.
'Connection refused' means that the service you tried to connect to wasn't listening at that port. Possibly it isn't started at all, or even installed.
You need to install a web server on your machine, such as Apache or Nginx. This is not provided by default in EC2.
go to security groups --> edit inbound rules --> add rule (add a custom TCP port 8888 with 0.0.0.0/0 ).
There are two major things that can happen to your web server.
Connection refused :- Which means there is no service running (http/JBOSS/nginx) on your server which is available to accept connections on port specified (which is 80 in this case)
Connection timed out :- Would mean server is not able to process any incoming connection hitting it at port 80. Once you fix the security group and your NACL (if you don't have a default one), then you need to re-check to see if it's service which is giving out the error, not to forget that the error response will change.
