Hi Dean,
Have you searched the mail archives? I'm pretty sure you'll find lots
of people who are using oracle and xwiki.
The oracle HBM file is part of the default install. Same for the feeds
one. You should not use the one you've used.
Thanks

 Please help.

 Subject:
 Can't get XWiki to work with Oracle
 I could use some help on getting an XWiki server working with Oracle.
 I followed the instructions here:
 
http://platform.xwiki.org/XWiki/bin/view/AdminGuide/InstallationOracle
 The mentioned xwiki-oracle.hbm.xml file I finally found here:
http://www.xwiki.org/XWiki/bin/view/FAQ/Isthereasimplewaygettingxwikiworkin…
 .
 I placed it in the suggested  xwiki/Web-INF/classes sub-directory.
 But, I could not find a feeds.oracle.hbm.xml file anywhere. (Why
 would the
 page mention those XML files yet not provide them?)
 I made the necessary changes to hibernate.cfg.xml file in WEB-INF. I
 even
 placed the ojdbc5.jar (latest rev) in the webaps/WEB-INF/lib
 directory. I
 know that the JDBC jar file is correct because I had to put it in the
 jetty/ext directory to get groovy script on one of our pages to
 successfully connect to a different Oracle instance and pull data
 onto the
 page. (Side note: groovy classes really need to be on their own
 separate
 pages due to parsing issues with velocity and groovy. This was a heard
 learned lesson).
 So, I made the changes from the above instructions and created an
 xwiki
 user on my Oracle 10g express edition DB which I installed on our
 Red-Hat
 Linux server. So far things seemed to go well until I tried to pull
 it all
 together and fire up the xwiki server and connect to it from the
 browser.
 Below is the error I received:
 HTTP ERROR: 500
 Error number 3 in 0: Could not initialize main xwiki context
 Wrapped Exception: Error number 3001 in 3: Cannot load class
 com.xpn.xwiki.store.migration.hibernate.XwikiHibernateMigrationManager
 from param xwiki.store.migration.manager.class
 Wrapped Exception: Error number 0 in 3: Exception while hibernate
 execute
 Wrapped Exception: Could not parse mapping document from resource
 xwiki.oracle.hbm.xml
 RequestURI=/xwiki/bin/CEDSYard/
 Powered by Jetty://
 The request URI is the configured main page for our wiki. I see no new
 tables in the xe Oracle DB.
 All of the past emails on the subject in the user list haven't
 supplied
 any answers. I really hope I can get some help on this.
 What do I need to do to get Oracle and xwiki to work together since
 the
 instructions I've found miss crucial elements of the puzzle?
 Thanks,
