Hello, Were there any database configuration changes between XWiki 4.2 and 5.2? I'm trying to upgrade our XWiki installation, as usually configured hibernate.cfg.xml to point to local MySQL database (name='xwiki_52_innodb_utf8'): <property name="connection.url">jdbc:mysql://localhost/xwiki_52_innodb_utf8?useServerPrepStmts=false&amp;useUnicode=true&amp;characterEncoding=UTF-8</property> <property name="connection.username">xwiki</property> <property name="connection.password">xwiki</property> <property name="connection.driver_class">com.mysql.jdbc.Driver</property> <property name="dialect">org.hibernate.dialect.MySQL5InnoDBDialect</property> <property name="dbcp.ps.maxActive">20</property> <mapping resource="xwiki.hbm.xml"/> <mapping resource="feeds.hbm.xml"/> <mapping resource="activitystream.hbm.xml"/> <mapping resource="instance.hbm.xml"/> But when XWiki starts it fails with an error: com.mysql.jdbc.exceptions.jdbc4.MySQLSyntaxErrorException: Access denied for user 'xwiki'@'localhost' to database 'xwiki' Is it still possible to specify database name different than xwiki?
