I won't pretend to understand fully how this side of the Xwiki works, as I've not had time to dig too deep under the skin..
 
Can you not put up a starter mysql xwiki (just basic download database) and use the export facility to create a dump?  You have the option to go for xml, if I read correctly - and oracle understands XML structures relatively well, though you may have some tweaking to do - you can even use the administrator to push directly into a new database directly as far as I can recall??
 
Um, I hope that doesn't sound too daft, just the kinda thing I would try if I was doing something like that...

Subject: Re: [xwiki-users] Re: Oracle dump example

Sorry but I don't want to create one, I want a oracle dump (or a oracle sql dump). Even if i got one generated from Import/Export facility, I could import it using Import/Export facility cause Xwiki is not working. Why ? because the database is empty so i don't have special page like webhome; create new user .... they are ALL blank page.

I tried a lot of things and the last error i got is :

javax.servlet.ServletException: Error number 3 in 0: Could not initialize main XWiki context

Wrapped Exception: Error number 3201 in 3: Exception while saving document XWiki.XWikiUsers
Wrapped Exception: Transaction not successfully started
org.apache.struts.action.RequestProcessor.processException(RequestProcessor.java :516)
......
That why I want a oracle dump to start from good things.

As I said before, I achieve to make it work with MySQL (easyly) but I must make it work with Oracle because we are using only Oracle in Production. That not my choice else I will be using MySQL.

Thanks to all who can help me !

You might want to use the Import/Export facility to create one
