5 [2.1.0] Post-Installer fails to create the webswell user - ID: 1724141

Last Update: Settings changed ( ladislav_urban )

Details:

[Webswell Connect 2.1.0] After copying the files the installer tries to
excecute some post installation scripts.

The first step is the creation of a webswell user.

It executes /usr/sbin/adduser which works fine for e.g. CentOS 5.0, but
fails for openSUSE 10.2, where the correct command should be
/usr/sbin/useradd.

In CentOS 5.0, /usr/sbin/adduser is "only" a symbolic link to
/usr/sbin/useradd. openSUSE does not have such a symbolic link.

Date: 2007-05-28 11:49 Sender: ladislav_urban There is workaround. You should run installer to the point that files are copied to your system. Then you manually adjust post_inst files in scripts directory to work for your system and normaly continue in installation by pressing next in the GUI installer
