Summary

The Connect Bamboo to an Oracle database documentation should mention that the database username cannot contain special characters such as "-" or quotes.

Using a hyphen in an Oracle 19c username requires the username to be enclosed in double quotes (e.g., "bamboo-user") because the hyphen is not a standard identifier character. Without quotes, it will interpret it as a subtraction operator, causing errors.  It is highly recommended to avoid special characters like '-' and use underscores (_) instead to prevent syntax issues

However, while "bamboo-user" would work in Oracle, if you set Bamboo to use that username with double quotes, it will fail to startup because of https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/BAM-26334.

Suggestion

We should mention in the documentation that the database username cannot contain special characters or double quotes.
