I thought it would be that easy as well but when I go from Hypersonic to Oracle, I see it create the database objects and I see multiple sessions connected to the Oracle Database but I get a portlet CMS null pointer exception. If I go back to hypersonic everything is fine. There must be something for Oracle that isn't configured or installed right.
