Chapter 7. Importing Data
	Part II. Installing BELTS

7.1. Importing Core Data
7.2. Importing Test Data

When BELTS is first installed, there is a single user defined (the “bootstrap” user). At the login screen, enter “bootstrap” as both the username and password and press the Login button. You will then be presented with a simple home screen. Select the Bootstrap link on the left of the screen to have the opportunity to import some basic data into the system.

Note

For security reasons, you should change the password of your bootstrap user once you have imported your initial data. This can be done by editing BELTS_HOME/server/default/conf/belts.users and changing the line:

bootstrap=bootstrap

bootstrap=newpassword

where “newpassword” is the desired password.

7.1. Importing Core Data

The first data to import is the core data. Press the Browse button and navigate to BELTS_HOME/server/default/bootstrap/core-data.xml, then select Import. If all goes well, you will see a message indicating that the import was successful.

You are now in a position where you have an administrative user called “beltsadmin” with a password of “beltsadmin”. You can now log in as this user to set up your schools, etc.
