Step 2: Create user and import Database

Only perform this step if you did not install the demo database when installing server.

After the database server is installed, You need to create a specific user called TheatreManager and give them privileges. You also want to import a demo database. This step assumes that you have installed into C:\BoxOffice. If you did not, then you will need to edit the .bat files and do this step manually.

1. Go to C:\BoxOffice directory. You will see some files and folders with names similar to below.

2. Double click on the 'ImportDemo' bat file. This starts a DOS prompt and start the bat file running.

If the server is 64 bit, you will need to change the ImportDemo.bat' file to refer to C:\Program Files (x86).

If you have altered the install directory, you will need to change the path name to point to the location that Postgres was installed in. Often, this is just changing the drive letter.
3. You are asked for the password to create the 'TheatreManager' user. Type the password you used for the installation of the database in the preceding section. If this is a demo database install, this may have been 'master' you used when installing the server.

The password is not be echoed back to you and you will not see the cursor move. There is no visual feedback that even a character was typed. You'll just have to get it right. If any of the steps are not right, you can start at the top of this step at any time.
