Good afternoon.

First of all, sorry but I am a novice in all that relates to OPC servers and connections.
I’m trying to connect to Matrikon OPC Server that I have installed and running in a virtual machine, and the same try to connect from the Java SDK against Matrikon server, but i can not.

The next example code (seemingly simple), returns next error on line “client.connect()”: “Failed to retrieve endpoints The server is not available. Opc.tcp: // localhost: 4841 ServiceResult = Bad_ConnectionRejected (0x80AC0000)” Could not Establish a network connection to remote server. “

Could you help to establish the connection via OPC-UA? On the other hand, is it possible other type of connection to a server using OPC UA, like HTTP SOAP requests, insted “opc.tcp”?

Code:
import java.io.IOException;
import java.net.UnknownHostException;
import java.util.Locale;
import org.opcfoundation.ua.builtintypes.DataValue;
import org.opcfoundation.ua.builtintypes.LocalizedText;
import org.opcfoundation.ua.core.ApplicationDescription;
import org.opcfoundation.ua.core.ApplicationType;
import org.opcfoundation.ua.core.Identifiers;
import org.opcfoundation.ua.transport.security.SecurityMode;

import com.prosysopc.ua.ApplicationIdentity;
import com.prosysopc.ua.SecureIdentityException;
import com.prosysopc.ua.client.UaClient;

public class SimpleClient {
public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
UaClient client = new UaClient(“opc.tcp://localhost:4841”);
client.setSecurityMode(SecurityMode.NONE);
initialize(client);
client.connect();
DataValue value = client.readValue(Identifiers.Server_ServerStatus_State);
System.out.println(value);
client.disconnect();
}

protected static void initialize(UaClient client)
throws SecureIdentityException, IOException, UnknownHostException {
ApplicationDescription appDescription = new ApplicationDescription();
appDescription.setApplicationName(new LocalizedText(“SimpleClient”, Locale.ENGLISH));
appDescription.setApplicationUri(“urn:localhost:UA:SimpleClient”);
appDescription.setProductUri(“urn:prosysopc.com:UA:SimpleClient”);
appDescription.setApplicationType(ApplicationType.Client);

final ApplicationIdentity identity = new ApplicationIdentity();
identity.setApplicationDescription(appDescription);
client.setApplicationIdentity(identity);
}
}

Thank you very much.

Please, verify the server address. Looks like the client cannot open the connection to port 4841 at all.

Hello.

Could you guide me on how to verify the actual address of the server? Keep in mind that I am doing everything on the same machine, but not sure how to check the server port Matrikon OPC Server?

Thanks!

You need to check it from Matrikon documentation. I don’t know that product so well.
