The critical settings are ##connection.datasource## (with JNDI name like ##java:/comp/env/jdbc/XWikiDS##) and the dialect class for your DB vendor. Do not comment out <mapping resource="..."/> elements, hibernate needs them. (You should leave the provider_class unset, since Xwiki's implementation doesn't handle container-managed data sources).

84	84	If your database is empty this will result in a minimal empty wiki installation. You may want to use the [[Import/Export tool>>AdminGuide.ImportExport]] to import some pages in your wiki. We recommend that you import the [[provided default XAR>>xwiki:Main.Download]]. If you're upgrading from an existing installation your database should already contain the pages you had before.
