Couldn't connect to a firebird database from javaFX application in Raspberry Pi

Question

hi i'm new to Raspberry Pi .

I have created a javafx application using netbeans in windows.my application uses firebird for DB purposes and uses jaybird jarapplication works fine with windows,centos ,but my application could not connect to the database from Raspberry Pi. database is located on a windows machine.

Do I need to install anything for firebird access in Raspberry Pi ?

here is my code

String db_ip = "192.168.1.14",db_path ="D:\\QUEUE_NEW.GDB";
Class.forName("org.firebirdsql.jdbc.FBDriver");
try {
    con = DriverManager.getConnection( "jdbc:firebirdsql://" + db_ip + ":3050/" +
                                       db_path + "", "SYSDBA", "masterkey");
    st = con.createStatement();
} 
catch (SQLException ex) {
    JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(null, "firebird sql.");
}

please help me out to resolve this issue

Thanks in advance.

I'm guessing the db_path is where the problem is. D:\\... won't be available as a path from the Pi, so either you'll need a DB alias here or mount the windows box share from the Pi and have the db_path be something like /mnt/windowsbox/QUEUE_NEW.GD .
