Setup demo site with make_demo

Hi Guys:

How do I set up a demo site like the one on your corporate site demo.erpnext.com?  I installed erpnext no problem from Github. I noticed there's an app/utilities/demo directory so I tried executing: lib/wfn.py -- make_demo (and) lib/wfn.py -- make_demo_fresh

I got the following message (with the --make_demo switch):

ro...@erpnext-demo-server:/var/www/erpnext# lib/wnf.py --make_demo
2013-01-01
Message: u'[Link Validation] Could not find the following values: Company: Wind Power LLC, Fiscal Year: 2013.\n\t\t\tPlease correct and resave. Document Not Saved.'

Any instructions on how to set up a demo site would be greatly appreciated.  It looks like it's all there, I'm just missing something,

Cheers,
Dave

So I made the demo install work by doing the following:

1) Edit: app/utilities/demo/demo_docs/Fiscal_Year.csv and added the following to the bottom

    ,,2012,01-Jan-2012,No
    ,,2013,01-Jan-2013,No

    This gets the fiscal year loading properly for 2013 during install.

2) In the erpnext root directory I added this to conf.py (under the database config section)

    demo_db_name = "demo"

3) I ran the demo install from the erpnext root directory:

    python app/utilities/demo/make_erpnext_demo.py

Viola! it did it's thing.  Now, how do I get to the demo?  What URL do I need to enter into the browser?

Cheers,
Dave
