Documentation patch to alleviate file ownership confusion
---------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: DS-535
                 URL: http://jira.dspace.org/jira/browse/DS-535
             Project: DSpace 1.x
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Documentation
    Affects Versions: 1.6.0
            Reporter: Mark Wood
            Priority: Minor
             Fix For: 1.6.1
         Attachments: installation.patch

A number of new users seem to have difficulty in getting file ownership and 
permissions correct.  I feel that many new users will be installing Tomcat (or 
whatever servlet container) using their OS' package manager, which will likely 
create a username for it.  Our instructions to create a user 'dspace' and use 
that will then lead some to try to change the user under which Tomcat runs.  
This is problematic.  The 'dspace' user is unnecessary and confusing; DSpace 
should use the container's account.

A suggested patch is attached.  Please discuss.
