If you use DB9 pin 2 means Rx (data reception) pin 3 is TX and pin 5 is Signal ground , in DB25 pin 2 is Tx (data transmission) pin 3 is Rx and pin 7 is signal ground.
Assuming you have DB9 and pin2 is RS-232 Rx, it has to be connected to MAX232 pin 13 (or 8 ). Pin 12 (or 9) will go to your microcontroller Rx ..
MAX232 pin14(7) will be connected to RS-232 (DB9) pin3 to transmit data from your microcontroller to PC and in this case pin 11(10) ..
