"Demo: Order Entry Demo Application" failed to show up.

Question

I downloaded Wrokshop 8.1 JumpStart kit. and started Exercise#1. However, after
copying demo-orderentry.zip to the target folder as directed, a File_New_Application
did not see "Demo: Order Empty Demo Application" in the right-side pane.
Any clue?

Hi, this did not work for me as well. I did the following: took template.xml file from demo-orderentry.zip and compared it to other template.xml files in other template archives (in the C:\bea\weblogic81\workshop\templates folder). According to the differences, I edited this file a bit, updated the demo-orderentry.zip archive and this worked out.
The template.xml looks now like this:
<template-definition>
<project-template id="oe_demo_project"
     extends="default"
type="urn:com-bea-ide:project.type:WebApp">
<content type="archive" destination="project" source="default-project.zip" overwrite="true"/>
</project-template>
<application-template id="oe_demo_app">
<display
location="newdialog"
label="Demo: Order Entry Demo Application"
description="Creates a new application containing components for the Order Entry demo."
priority="2"
categories="Demos"/>
<project-template-ref default-name="Schemas" type="urn:com-bea-ide:xbean" template="default"/>
<project-template-ref default-name="AvitekDemoApp" type="urn:com-bea-ide:project.type:WebApp" template="oe_demo_project"/>
</application-template>
</template-definition>
