Answer 1

You need create an admin credential in your local development server first.

With your firefox (or chrome safari etc), open http://localhost:8178/remote_api, you will be asked to login (without password), enter an email as your login, and tick the login as administrater box, login. This will create you a local admin credential for you, use this when bulkloading locally.

It applies to other admin required local access.

Leaving (or commenting) out login:admin is a bad practice, since you might deploy that into production, too. Take care!
