Getting started
Open BIRT Analytics Loader to create projects that build database loading processes. Actuate BIRT Analytics Loader installs as part of the Actuate BIRT Analytics product. For more information, see the BIRT Analytics installation guide.
To access BIRT Analytics Loader, you need a web browser.

where
*<webserver>:8080 is the web server and TCP port that runs the BIRT Analytics Loader application. Alternatively, you can use an IP address instead of the web server name.

*In User name, type the user name.

By default, BIRT Analytics Loader provides an administrator user account, “Administrator”, with the password, “PASSWORD”. This user is stored into the dubnium.db sqlite database. The user can be modified by editing this database. Although “Administrator” is the User name used for logging on to all the UI elements: BAfrontend, BAadmin and QLoader, the User name required for logging into Dubnium is “SYSTEM”.
