Here is mu scenario.
1 .Logged into admin portal as a admin user.
2 .Created new category called "Women"
3 . Created new product called "Accessories"
4 . Added skus under product options.
5 . Able to see the product on the site.

Here are few issues i am facing.
1 . How can i browse skus?
2 . When i restart my server the is not available in admin tool.
3 . While adding product to the cart the below exception getting displayed.

Please suggest me where i have gone wrongly?

1. How can i browse skus?

You can't at this point, you should get to a Product first and then get to the Skus from there. In the DemoSite, this works by selecting different product options on the product page (like for shirts).

2 . When i restart my server the is not available in admin tool.

What's not available?

3 . While adding product to the cart the below exception getting displayed.

Check to see if you have set, at a minimum, an active start date for the Sku.

Thanks phillipuniverse .

Now i am able to browse all the pages and able to add the items to my cart.Finally i was able to place orders also.

After the above exercise I am trying to migrate the HSQLDB to MySQL db.Unfortunately i couldnt find any documentation in getting started guide.
Could you please help how can i proceed further.

Sure, take a look at our docs: http://www.broadleafcommerce.com/docs/c ... l-tutorial.

Thanks Phillip,

I have gone through documentation and done the respective configuration changes.Now i am able to browse the site and checkout the order also.
I noticed that whenever i stopped the server,the catalog and data being removed from my schema.How can i avoid this ?Please guide me?
