Question:
Fiware error on creating service and registration for a device

Description:
i am a fiware user and i have created an iot agent on an ubuntu 14.04 empty vm and when i send a create service or a device registration request , i get an error. And i've made sure that the ports listen properly and i've also allowed tcp connection on the port 4061. and also get an error whenever i send the request .

here's the create service request

(curl H 'content-type: application/json' -H 'fiware-service: bla770' -H 'fiware-servicepath: /howtobla770' -X POST 'http://217.172.12.243:4061/iot/services' -d @ ) << EOF
{
"services": [

]
}
EOF

and this is the error which i get .

connect to 217.172.12.243 port 4061 failed: Connection timed out

• Failed to connect to 217.172.12.243 port 4061: Connection timed out

Although i have allowed the port 4061 through the firewall by the command
sudo ufw allow 4061

sudo ufw allow 4061

So, what could be done to solve this error please ?
