[freeside] ASP error

[Jesse Estevez]

Ivan,

I think the problem is that I ran fs-setup and passed it the user name of
a real-world user ( 'jestevez' ) rather than the freeside user 'freeside',
could that have been the problem?  At any rate, I did that, and then I ran
dbdef-create and everything started to work.  I couldn't find reference to
dbdef-create in the install doc, is that done by make?
