Creation of new user with DA -HELP-

Hi all

I need help on this one.
While creating a new reseller I got this message.
___________________________________
Error Creating User tototest


Details

Error creating user: pw: user 'tototest' disappeared during update
Cannot find a home directory after the system user creation for tototest
The home directory for tototest was not created.
______________________________________

Just before I found my backup system geting creazy and backing up the all system onto / . The same folder was -118%
I did delete a 235mb file and reboot.

Now I got this.
What should I do.

Thanks
Marc

Marc,

I'm not sure what you mean.

First, what do you mean by "folder"?

What do you mean by 118%? A partition can't be more than 100% full, if that's what you mean.

If you had a full drive partition while DA was attempting to create a user certain files/directories were not created.

You'll have to do some forensics to find all references to the user that were created, and remove them; then try again.

Repairing a drive that was allowed to get full could take a lot of time.

I can't give you any more info until you clarify what you mean.
