Errors with database - can not save in Oracle

When trying to save a Confluence page, I sometimes get a "An error occured while trying to save the requested page." error and am unable to save the page.

This error is random in that sometimes I am able to save a page, but if I have a specific document it occurs always if I do not delete some specific part of a document. Happened to me for several documents and these "parts" were different in those documents. No weird characters in those parts or anything like that.

The error log (generated after I click "save") shows two errors:

1) java.sql.SQLException: ORA-01453: SET TRANSACTION must be first statement of transaction

at com.mchange.v2.c3p0.impl.C3P0PooledConnection$ProxyConnectionInvocationHandler.invoke(Ljava.lang.Object;Ljava.lang.reflect.Method;[Ljava.lang.Object;)Ljava.lang.Object;(C3P0PooledConnection.java:724)
at com.mchange.v2.c3p0.impl.$Proxy0.setReadOnly(Z)V(Unknown Source)
at org.springframework.orm.hibernate.HibernateTransactionManager.doBegin(Ljava.lang.Object;Lorg.springframework.transaction.TransactionDefinition;)V(HibernateTransactionManager.java:247)

Which also occurs even without saving anything, just browsing and I have reported it at CONF-1027

and then this error is followed by:

2) [INFO] HibernateTransactionManager - -Initiating transaction commit
[INFO] DefaultActionInvocation - -Executing action method = doEdit
[INFO] HibernateTransactionManager - -Initiating transaction commit
