54: #error("If you're using Oracle, you'll need to upgrade the Hibernate JAR version used by XWiki by replacing the <tt>WEB-INF/lib/hibernate-3.1.3.jar</tt> file with [this file>http://repo1.maven.org/maven2/org/hibernate/hibernate/3.2.5.ga/hibernate-3.2.5.ga.jar] (Hibernate version 3.2.5.ga, which solves an issue in Hibernate 3.1.3). See [XWIKI-2009>https://jira.xwiki.org/browse/XWIKI-2009].")
55: 
56: 1.1 Migrating from 1.1.2 or later
57: 
58: The database structure has been changed but we have set up an automatic migration system so you shouldn't have to touch your Database to upgrade to 1.2. Thus you can simply install this version and configure it to point to your existing database. However you may want to [import the default wiki XAR>Main.Download] in order to benefit from improvements listed above.

Of note, you should add <tt>xwiki.store.migration=1</tt> so that XWiki will attempt to automatically migrate your current database to the new schema. Make sure you backup your Database before doing anything.")
