Steps to setup Hybris for the first time

1) Download the latest version of hybris from wiki-hybris.

2) Unzip the hybris multi-channel suite.

3) After unzipping the files, open command prompt and go to this path - hybrisfolder > bin >    
    platform.

4) First we need to set-up ant, so type the following command - setantenv.bat

5) Now build your hybris suite - ant clean all

6) After successful build config folder will be created in your installed hybris directory where it  
     contains 2 important files - local.properties and localextensions.xml

7) Now start the hybris server - hybrisserver.bat

 8) Now type http://localhost:9001/ in the browser.

 9) You now have to click on initialize available under platform > initialization tab, this will
     automatically create all the data required to launch a  ecommerce website as well as the hybris
     management console (hMC) from where you can  control the  data displayed on the website.



10) It takes around 2 hours to complete the initialization process.

11) Now type http://localhost:9001/yacceleratorstorefront?site=electronics in the browser.

12) Ecommerce website will open-up as shown below.


13) This is the default ecommerce website which comes out-of-the box in hybris.

14) You can now mould this website as per the client requirements.

15) Hybris creates 1 more site by default, you can access this by typing
      http://localhost:9001/yacceleratorstorefront?site=apparel in the browser.

16) To open hMC type http://localhost:9001/hmc in the browser.


17) Type username / password as admin / nimda.

18) Hybris Management Console (hMC) will open up, where you can control the data (products,
       price, available quantity etc) displayed on the website.
