Hi,
I am trying to connect to HSQLDB via Perl using the DBD::JDBC module.
Below is the code snippet i am using.

use DBI;
use DBD::JDBC;
use Data::Dumper;
my $hostname = "xyz";
my $port = 51426;
my $url = "jdbc:hsqldb:hsql://xyz/inmemory_cache";
my $username = "sa";
my $password = "";
my $dbh = DBI->connect("dbi:JDBC:hostname=$hostname:$port;url=$url",$username, $password);

my $sql = "select top 10 * from table";
my $a = $dbh->selectall_arrayref($sql);
print Dumper($a);

I am getting the following error.
DBI connect('hostname=xyz:51426;url=jdbc:hsqldb:hsql://xyz/inmemory_cache','sa',...) failed: I/O Error at experiment.pl line 13

Please note: I am using the HSQLDB and not HSQLDB-BER. Will that make a difference? AFAIK, it shouldnot and I am not able to figure out the reason of the failure.
Please help. This is urgent.
Thanks,
Jasleen
