Hi, I'm assuming you mean changing the schema name. Yes it's possible. See http://jira.xwiki.org/jira/browse/XWIKI-2006 Thanks -Vincent On Oct 6, 2008, at 11:52 PM, MinhHoang To wrote:

To avoid datbase name conflicts, the hosting service adds a prefix to any database name. Hence, we could not have database 'xwikidb' with our current hosting service. Unfortunately, that caused connection error as XWiki uses somewhere the default parameter 'xwikidb' for the connection ( being a new user, i have not been able to figure out what has to be customized)

You mean "xwiki" ? If you are using XEM/multiwiki look at what Vincent and Ruslan pointed out. As your are using MySQL and if you are using XE in with one wiki/database you just can modify your hibernate.cfg.xml file according to the name of your database (see http://platform.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/AdminGuide/Installation#HInstalland...).
