Problem solved: It seems that certain Oracle databses like to be refered to by their names. If you got a database called test where you have your messaging tables(JBM_**) them in the oracle-persistence-**.xml file need to change all table references to databaseName.tableName this is what worked for me. Thanks everybody for their help. View the original post : http://www.jboss.com/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&p=4051349#...
