User created with RPM install has wrong home directory
Issue
After install EWP 5.1 from the RPM installer we received the following Warning message when starting jboss:
runuser: warning: cannot change directory to /usr/share/jbossas: No such file or directory
To reproduce:
1) Install EWP on Redhat 5 64bit with Sun JDK using RHN.
2) Start JBoss 'service jbossas-web start'
3) You should get an error 'runuser: warning: cannot change directory to /usr/share/jbossas: No such file or directory'
4) This is due to the jboss user's home directory being created as '/usr/share/jbossas' not '/usr/share/jbossas-web';
[root@testjboss01 ~]# cat /etc/passwd | grep jboss
jboss:x:101:102:JBossAS:/usr/share/jbossas:/sbin/nologin
Environment
EWP 5.1
RHEL 5
RHN rpm install
