[SOLVED] PHP FPM initialization failed - cannot get uid for user 'grofiles'

michi

I installed grommunio today with the newest iso file. The php-fpm service cannot start.

Log:

Hi Michi,
There is indeed an issue with the new iso and use the grommunio-files package.
I was able to solve the php-fpm issue by creating a grofiles user and group.
Open the terminal and type the following commands:
groupadd grofiles
useradd grofiles -g grofiles
service php-fpm start

makeitsimple Thanks, now the service works! ;)

Thanks for the report, there was indeed an issue with an exclusive distro user flag in the build process. Both the ISO and the repo have pending updates in the queue. Expect updates online in about 2 hours.
