Thank you for the hint, but /etc/hosts seems to look fine.

I’ve solved the problem:

 

When I opened the client and entered the IP of the server’s machine, the
client answered

“Server is probably down”. The same thing happened, when I used the server’s

hostname instead of its IP. 

But: when I change the server’s hostname into

its IP (in other words: set hostname = IP), then everything works fine.

 

I first supposed, that the client interprets the IP as hostname-string, but
that doesn’t

answer the question why the hostname doesn’t work either.

 

Now, that OMERO.server runs on my test system, I’ve decided to decouple the

server from the database, which also works very good and makes the whole
system

more flexible.

 

Greetings from germany,
