If you look at the error message you'll see that it's complaining that you
have no "bin" user on your system. What O/S are you using? There is a
configuration option to specify the user to run that script as I recall
(someone correct me if I'm wrong please) Either that, or you can just
make a bin user.
Cheers,
Tren.
