Hello,
There have been some threads already about this, but the info they provided didn't really help.
I am trying to export the metadata model and the reports.
I am using following default login details:
admin
password
I set the publishing password as well.
I tried several versions of the localhost URL for logging in.
Can you please tell me which URL to use or anything else that would help?
Thanks,
Diddy

Well, if somebody is having the same problem, here is the solution:
1. create a sub-directory under pentaho-solutions (for now if creating in UNIX, do not use spaces in name)
2. include an index.xml and index.properties files in sub-directory (look at steel-wheels as an example to see what should be in that file). In the properties file you can define a new name for the folder that shows up online.
3. update the repository with your new solution (I did this by logging onto the User Console as an admin and updating the Repository Cache (via Tools ->Refresh -> Repository Cach))
If the publish function in the metadata editor is not working, just copy and past the metadata file into the solution folder. The file name must be 'medadata.xmi'.
Publishing Metadata with Metadata Editor
Default user name: joe
Default password: password
publisher password: define one
URL: http://localhost:8080/pentaho/RepositoryFilePublisher
Publish Report with Report Designer
Default user name: joe
Default password: password
publisher password: define one
URL: http://localhost:8080/pentaho
I hope this helps.
