I found a support case where the same error was reported and it was solved by using a different Oracle driver. You don't mention which database management system you are using but in case it is the same scenario I will share the solution from the support ticket:

"It could be the driver used for Confluence and oracle 12c. Are you using OJDBC 7 Oracle Driver version 12.1.0.1? If yes, let's use the 12.1.0.2 version instead http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/database/features/jdbc/default-2280470.html.
Download the driver, shutdown the app, copy the driver JAR file to the <Confluence installation>/confluence/WEB-INF/lib folder in your new Confluence installation and remove the previous one." (my italics)
