Setting up standard database configuration for SMW ...
Selected storage engine is "SMWSQLStore2" (or an extension thereof)
Checking table "MWSMW_IDS" ... Table already exists, checking structure ...
i cheked there is no such table availabe in my database.
thanks Rs
Hey,
I'm not really familiar with Oracle, but SMW currently only supports MySQL and PostGres. Not sure how hard it would be to support Oracle.
Cheers

Hi Rahul,
I think nobody has tried to use Oracle with SMW yet, so it is likely that there are some adjustments to be made before this works. If the automatic creation of the required tables fails, you could try to make the tables manually (the name and fields are shown in the [successful] setup output on MySQL, and can be looked at in your MySQL database if you have it running there). Normally the table names are in lower-case characters -- I don't know why you get it in upper-case letters in your output.
If you find concrete things that we should change to make it work on Oracle, then we are happy to take them into account. You can submit concrete suggestions to bugzilla.mediawiki.org. I think nobody of us has a license for Oracle, so we cannot really develop effectively for this platform.
Maybe you can also find further feedback on the SMW mailing list. I am cross-posting this reply to the user list.
Cheers,
Markus

There is a free (as in beer) version of Oracle you can download from the Oracle website which would allow you to test it locally if you wanted. I also know Jure (freakolowsky) is active in supporting Oracle for MW core so if you had specific questions I'm sure he would be willing to answer them.

Thanks, I was not aware of this. This really changes the situation.

Ideally, we would also find some interested developer to take the lead for this task in SMW. Hopefully this would not be too much work since all our SQL is in two files, where only a few places do not use high-level MediaWiki SQL wrapper functions. Even without this, it would still be useful if interested users could describe Oracle-related issues in bugzilla, so that we do at least have them in our queue of todos.

I can take a look at it, but as i don't use SMW i'm thinking about putting up a public test wiki in my office, so SMW ppl can test against an oracle database backend ... how does that sound?

Thanks, but I think that debugging the installation steps will be difficult using only a publicly accessible wiki (in the first place, this wiki could not install SMW until someone fixes the reported problems). So I think we first need to find somebody to debug the basic SMW Orcale support to the point where at least installation works. But thanks for the offer anyway.

Oracle backend makes them uppercase.
From DatabaseOracle::tableName(): Using uppercase because that's the only way Oracle can handle quoted tablenames
