I have searched the code and have it with me. I am interested to know the importance of each module([http://www.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Community/SourceRepository#HUnderstandingthedirectorystructure] gives some insight, but it does not speak about the necessary and inter-dependent modules. Any information on that would be hlepful)

Hi all,
I have followed "http://www.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Community/Building" to build the default source available at "svn://svn.forge.objectweb.org/svnroot/xwiki/trunks-users". I tried to build everything but the build broke down.
How do you expect us to help you?
Furthermore, I need to build XWiki for Oracle and Weblogic, please help me in the hibernate /maven files and/or WLS related set-up.
You don't need to build XWiki for Oracle nor or WebLogic. These are just configuration options. You need to read the Installation guide on xwiki.org
Any documentation will also be helpful.
You've seen the documentation already. That's all there is and it's supposed to be enough to build xwiki. Do you have a specific question?

Thanks For your reply,
Can you please provide some in-sight on the following:
1) The significance of individual modules(xwiki-platform-web,xwiki-platform-core,xwiki-platform-tools etc...).
Read http://www.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Community/. You'll find it in the source repository section. Are you sure you've searched before asking?
I am interested in building an archive which already has the DB properties that i need(not the default ones), so that there is no need to change DB properties every time i build it.
2) The hibernate file that I can configure (for Oracle) before doing an 'mvn install' on 'xwiki-platform-web' to create a WAR with Oracle config.
As I said above it's a configuration thing, so just build xwiki and then configure it.
Maybe you could tell us why you want to build xwiki from sources? That would allows us to better help you...
The source repository mentioned on xwiki.org (http://www.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Community/SourceRepository) has many modules with hibernate config , since i am not sure about the inter-dependencies of these modules, please suggest which one should i change.(I may just build and change the sole hibernate config, but it would help if i can understand the root source of the build properties).
3) Where to configure the user/password for the database, (default is XWIKI/XWIKI ).
In the hibernate config file. Once again, as I said in my previous email, please read the Installation guide on xwiki.org. Are you sure you've read it?
I tried to add(<property name="hbm2ddl.auto">create</property>) in hibernate,not sure if this is there in the XWiki engine already,but the database was created and i could go to the main page, and need some credentials to log-in.
4) How can I log-into XWiki, the first time I build and run it, is there a default user inserted into the table or do i need to create it through the UI ?
Depends if you've built a xwiki database or not.
I am thankful for your co-operation.
