 Hi All,
  
 We are currently using the 0.9.840 version of Xwiki. We are planning to
 upgrade the wiki to the latest version so as to include all the new
 features provided by xwiki.

That’s a nice challenge since 0.9.840 dates back to July 2005 (i.e. 9 years 
ago) ;)

 I searched almost everywhere for a good resource for upgrading the wiki,
 but in vain.

I don’t know what you searched but it’s very very simple to find an upgrade doc 
(either in google on or on xwiki.org). I just typed “xwiki upgrade” on google 
and got
http://platform.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/AdminGuide/Upgrade

I’ve just added a new section in that doc for you since I believe you shouldn’t 
go through and upgrade in your case and instead go through import/export:
http://platform.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/AdminGuide/Upgrade#HAlternative:ExportandReimport

 Can someone guide me on this to accomplish this task?
 This is a very significant step in expanding our business with the xwiki
 team.

Also note that since it’s not an easy step you could ask for professional 
support from experts. There are some companies offering that listed here:

 Thanks,

Re: [xwiki-users] Username and Password for Subwiki-Databases

[Eduard Moraru]

Hi,

XWiki is configured to use an user and password *for the entire connection*
and not for individual databases. When a new subwiki is created, a new
database is created inside the configured schema.

To configure XWiki's connection to your new database, you need to edit your
hibernate.cfg.xml. See the notes from the Oracle installation [1].

Then you could double check your new database server to see if the user and
password that you have just configured XWiki to use is correct and if the
user has the proper rights. Depending on your setup, use Oracle's interface
to manage users and rights and probably use a console (Oracle SQL*Plus
command-line tool?) to connect to your database to validate the user and
password.

Hope this helps,
Eduard

P.S.: I guess it does not hurt to have a look over the MySQL instructions
[2] which might offer some additional details, since the process is more or
less similar.

 Hi all,
 I'm running XWiki 6.2 (Oracle-DB / Tomcat7) with two sub-wikis.
 I learned that for each sub-wiki, a database is created. Does anyone know
 the username and password for the sub-wiki databases? Are they the same as
 for the main database?
 Here's why I'm asking: I'm trying to transfer the wiki including the
 sub-wikis to a new server, but the XWiki-User is not allowed to create
 databases there. So I had the admin set up the databases and sent three
 dumps of the main and sub-wiki databases. After importing, I can't access
 the wiki, I get an error message like this:
 SQL Error: 1435, SQLState: 72000ORA-01435: No such user
 So, basically, the question is: How to transfer a wiki including sub-wikis
 to a new server?
