Magento

Your Magento Jumpbox is delivered with many demo data, not very good to start a real application. Is there a way to have an empty Magento ? (no products, no categories, no groups..)

:)

Thanks for bringing this to

Thanks for bringing this to our attention. I'm working on a solution for yourself and others in this same situation. I'll get back to you tomorrow.

OK, here's how to do

OK, here's how to do it:

Enable SSH on the JumpBox, ssh in, and run the following command:


sudo mysql --defaults-extra-file=/etc/mysql/debian.cnf

You'll be prompted for the admin user's password. Then type:


DROP DATABASE magento;
CREATE DATABASE magento;

and press Control-D to exit. Now go to the IP address of your JumpBox in your browser. The page will take about 30 seconds to load. You'll now have a blank Magento. (It has couple of pieces of sample data in it, but I think these are there in any Magento install.)

Now go back to your ssh terminal and type:


sudo /jumpbox/application_portal/privileged_scripts/ubuntu/app.rb set_adminuser_pass PASS

where PASS is the password you want. Go to /admin in your browser. Log in with "admin" and the password you just chose. You will see a small information box complaining about base_url. Click the link in the box, and on the config page that appears, enter "http://IP" and "https://IP" in the Unsecured Base URL and Secured Base URL fields respectively, where IP is the IP address of the JumpBox.

The next release of the JumpBox for Magento will have a script to automate this process. Hope this helps, let us know how it goes.

As idea i thing it's good people can choose to download from your site a jumpbox with demodata or without, what do you think ? :)
