How can I set up Sitecore Commerce Demo Site (Sitecore.Demo.Retail) to exclude configuration errors?

When I set up the sitecore demo retail site (source - https://github.com/Sitecore/Sitecore.Demo.Retail), I encountered with several problems related to Sitecore Commerce configurations and Sitecore Engine Configurations. I will divide this issues:

  1. I got the following error while running the install-commerce-server.ps1 script on step 5 (Commerce Server Configuration) enter image description here

  2. I got error 'HTTP Error 502.5 - Process Failure' by URL - http://habitat.commerceengine.dev.local:5000/api/$metadata enter image description here

  3. On 'reatil.dev.local' site I got error 'Could not find property 'shopName' on object of type: Sitecore.Commerce.Engine.Connect.CommerceEngineConfiguration', when I tried to go on any page with products enter image description here

  4. I encountered with some errors of Sitecore Commerce Applications (Merchandising Manager, Pricing & Promotions) in Sitecore Experience Platform enter image description here enter image description here

However, I have resolved this issues and I hope that this info will be useful for set up of Sitecore Demo Retail site (https://github.com/Sitecore/Sitecore.Demo.Retail). I have repeated instuctions for install of Sitecore.Demo.Retail and fixed related issues:

  1. This issue had discussed in https://github.com/Sitecore/Sitecore.Demo.Retail/issues/81. You need to check file 'Server2012_FeaturesRequired.txt' like it stated in issued-81. Then you must check file csconfig.xml (path for me - 'c:\Projects\Sitecore.Demo.Retail\install'). I had bad SQL connection to MSSQL Server, which was default. Here example of working variant: enter image description here By another way you can run Commerce Server Configurator manually by 'CSConfig.exe /f' (path for me - 'c:\Program Files (x86)\Commerce Server 11\'). Then you can load xml-configuration and set and test SQL connection: enter image description here

  2. This issue appeared on my environment, because i had wrong SQL connections (by default) in Commerce Engine project in Sitecore.Demo.Retail solution. You must to change all connections in the following files Global.json, Habitat.CommerceAuthoring-1.0.0.json, Habitat.CommerceShops-1.0.0.json. !!!Don't afraid to check appropriate configs in deployed solution enter image description here

  3. This error is appeared due the wrong tags (storefront) in 'commerceEngineConfiguration' tag. You need to remove this tags in Sitecore.Demo.Retail.config file. Working variant for example in showConfig.aspx: enter image description here
  4. You should to check connection strings in file Z.Sitecore.Commerce.UX.Shared.config (path for me - c:\websites\habitat.dev.local\Website\App_Config\Include). By default I had 'localhost:5000/...' enter image description here
