DBIx::XML_RDB does not return any DBI error messages but does print to
STDERR;
Here is a quote from the initialize function from XML_RDB.pm that is called
by the new constructor.
He should print the DBI->errstr here;

 $self->{dbh} = DBI->connect("dbi:$driver:". $self->{datasource}, $userid,
$password);
 if (!$self->{dbh}) {
  print STDERR "Connection failed\n";
  return 0;
 }
