Step 7 - Start Using OpenMRS

After you have finished configuring OpenMRS, RELOAD the application in Tomcat Manager.

Open http://localhost:8080/openmrs. You will see a login page. If you're using the OpenMRS standalone package, the page is at http://localhost:8080/openmrs-standalone .

1. You will need to log in initially using the username and password you specified in Step 6 - Configuring OpenMRS, substep 4. If you did not specify a username and password, try the default username admin and password test (both are in lowercase).

2. Alternatively, while Tomcat is running you can start OpenMRS by entering http://localhost:8080/openmrs/login.htm  (assuming 8080 is your port number for Tomcat; insert the appropriate port number if it is not 8080). For OpenMRS standalone package, you can start OpenMRS by entering http://localhost:8080/openmrs-standalone/login.htm .
