Call method on another ddp connection (microservice) gives invoking method error

help

I’m trying to set up a microservice using DDP-connection in my meteor application. But the code gives me an invoking Method error, which I do not understand.
So what is wrong with my code?

This is my example microservice, which is running on port 3100:

Example microservice
/server/methods.js

import { Meteor } from 'meteor/meteor';

Meteor.methods({
  "exampleMethod": function(param) {
	console.log(param);
    return [ 'result' ];
  }
});

Main application
/server/main.js

import { Meteor } from 'meteor/meteor'

var exampleConnection = DDP.connect("http://localhost:3100");

Meteor.defer(function() {
	exampleConnection.call('exampleMethod', 'param');
});

How do I call the method in my main application?

Main application
/imports/ui/example.jsx

import React, { Component } from 'react'

export default class Example extends Component {
	handleChange(event) {
		Meteor.call('exampleMethod', 'param', function(error, result) {
			console.log(result);
		});
	}
    render { return (<Anything />); }
}

So with this I would expect the console output of parameter and the result. But this concept doesn’t work. I’m getting an Error invoking Method 'exampleMethod': Method 'exampleMethod' not found [404] error.
