Hey guys,
I’d appreciate if anyone out there could help me out with the error that is displaying once I try and open the xwiki on a localhost, hosted by tomcat. Please have a look into the screenshot I attached with this post, I am completely clueless on how to proceed.
Thanks!
Hello, please paste the FULL stack trace (you can check the xwiki logs to find it). We need the main cause to help you. Thx

Here is the full stack trace.
This stack trace doesn’t correspond to the one you were showing above…
In any case, this last stack trace means that you have configured your xwiki instance to not upgrade the database as it’s written:
Since database [xwiki] needs to be migrated, it couldn't be safely used! Please check your configuration to enable required migration for upgrading database from version [0] to version [170400000].
You need to enable data migration in your xwiki.cfg. You can check the part about migration on https://www.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Documentation/AdminGuide/Upgrade/#HMethod1.CUpgradingtheWAR.WAR
Hey! Thank you so much for your assistance, I got through with the problem, but now another problem challenges. That is how do I upload files on the wiki so that anyone can open it WITHOUT needing to download them. So just take a preview on the wiki itself.
