On this page http://maas.ubuntu.com/docs1.5/install.html It says to run "sudo maas-region-admin createadmin ..." Is there any reason you missed that that we can help to fix? (In the last release, the maas command was renamed to maas-region-admin, and maas-cli to maas, which has caused some confusion) > I expected a simple error message if a database file isn't readable > rather than a stack trace. > > I expected some simple help regardless of database ownership. This should have happened without the stacktrace, and is the real bug here. I will amend the title accordingly. > I expected the advice about getting help to be usable with copy-and- > paste. Please file a separate bug for that.
