I have now managed to enter in the customer detail in successfully, but the browse
options still exists

For example, clicking on browse customers (by last name) will give me an error

    Error processing your request
    Your request could not be processed because of the following error:

    No matching customers found!

This happens with almost all the browse options except for packages (by package
number) which will display packages ordered by the customer.
The seacrh options produces an error, eg searching by last name, although there are
customer details in the database.


Another question, is it necessary to setup the sevice definition?

Cheers. Colin
