Hi

I installed yesterday a fresh cooker by using network installation
method. While I tried to start apache daemon, I get following error:

# /etc/init.d/httpd start
Starting httpd2: httpd2: bad user name apache

I checked the list of users (and system users) and there was not an user
called apache. So it seems that the Mandrake/apache installation did not
create an apache-user. rpm -qa | grep apache will give following output.


# rpm -qa | grep apache apache2-mod_ssl-2.0.47-1mdk apache2-2.0.47-1mdk apache2-common-2.0.47-1mdk apache2-mod_perl-2.0.47_1.99_09-1mdk apache-conf-2.0.47-2mdk apache2-mod_suexec-2.0.47-1mdk apache2-modules-2.0.47-1mdk

If I create apache user manually, what should I set for the home
location and shell?

Mika
