Hi,  
Yes, you can. Please note: In bonita v6, there is only have one database. You can follow this procedure to configure oracle DB with bonita.  
[http://documentation.bonitasoft.com/configure-bonita-your-dbms](http://documentation.bonitasoft.com/configure-bonita-your-dbms)

Also, there is specific conflagration for oracle you need to perform.

Hi,  
Are you trying to configure oracle on Tomcat bundle? Or studio?  
Please note that you might not be possible to replace the default DB in studio. The purpose of the studio is just to test your process with h2.

I will need to see full stack trace. Can you share catalina logs as well?
