I copy my answer to the xwiki-user mailing-list, which is the most 
appropriate place for such questions.

Can you let us know which version of xwiki you downloaded? You may 
consider using the 1.0 beta from there: 
http://www.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Main/Download

It includes a complete standalone intaller. Note that XWiki also 
contains a blog application. You can see it in action there: 
http://www.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Blog/

In your case, the console displays "Could not create a DBCP pool": it 
means your XWiki instance cannot connect properly to the database. You 
should probably check that the MySQL account declared in the file 
$XWIKI_INSTALL/WEB-INF/classes/hibernate.cfg.xml (properties 
"connection.username" and "connection.password") is correct. Sending the 
output of Jetty log file may help.

Cheers

Stéphane
