I have downloaded Domino Designer 9 Social Edition, Designer, Notes Client and Administrator and installed it locally on my machine to experiment how Webb development works with designer. I am now trying to get data from a RDBMS as Oracle database by using DCR. I create a new Data Connection, and a form with a field for external data and a view for the data. I have followed all the details but it doesn't work and I get this message when I click "Import External Records" for my data connection:

 

Unable to find any path to Local because Unable to find path to server. Check that your network connection is working. If you have working connection, go to Prefereneces - Notes Port and click Trace to discover where it breaks down.

 

When I check Notes Ports in Preferences, it is nothing there, also no ports to choose to trace. 

 

I am almost giving up with Domino. . Any idea what might be the problem?
