I think I am getting close. The various instructions I had found just sent me on a merry chase and following your instructions solved most of the problems. Before I go the next step... For the other set up instructions I had set up mysql DB. I notice there is a built in set up mentioned in the hibernate.cfg.xml file. Is there any good reason to *not* use the default? Would I gain or lose anything by using the default vs going with mysql (Other than that I am fairly familiar with msyql). _______________________________________________ users mailing list users@xwiki.org http://lists.xwiki.org/mailman/listinfo/users
