Hi Felix, You're right to add this precision.
I tried to run the server with the apacheds user (that was created by the installer if non-existent on the system) but I could not get it working. So I set the default user as root to ensure everything would be ok. I'll try to investigate more on this 'user issue' and update the script and installer as soon as I can find a fix.
