[Fiware-tech-help] [IoT][IoT Discovery] UserAdd Error: It is not possible to add the user because the UID it is not unique

[Fi-ware ULPGC]

Responsible: fiware at ulpgc.es
Tested GE(s):Backend Device Management - IDAS
Instance: Local
Environment:
Operating System: CentOS 64bits version 5.8
Kernel Version: 2.6.18-398.el5
Web Browser: Mozilla Firefox version 3.6.26


Description:
It is not possible to add the user because the UID it is not unique. So to
solve this issue and continue the installation, we needed to add the -o
option because if you try giving a UID without -o option, error is
displayed (see the attached image).

This is the instruction used:

useradd -d /home/mongodb -m -g mongodb -s /bin/ksh -o -u  500 mongodb
