How do I Configure My Own Site and not Geometrixx as the Default Site?

In CQ 5.4, the publish instances always load up the /geometrixx website by default if you point your browser at http://server:4503
If you have created your own site and want that one to be the default, there are some tricky things you have to do.
1) In the CQ “author” instance, using CRXDE Lite, navigate to /content and highlight it
2) Set the sling:target property to the root of your website.  Eg: /content/mywebsite/en
3) Click the ‘Save All’ buton (top left) to save the change.
4) Exit CRXDE Lite
5) In CQ\Websites, highlight the root folder (\Websites), and hit the 'Activate’ button.
6) Verify with the CQ “publish” instance (http://server:4503) that what loads up is your website and not geometrixx.

P.S.  You can also try navigating to /libs/cq/core/config.publish/com.day.cq.commons.servlets.RootMappingServlet and changing the rootmapping.target property.
