Description

The ApacheDS 2.0 installer incorrectly presumes that the user used to run the server always has its group name equal to its user name. In corporations where this isn't true, meaning the group name is not equal to $RUN_AS_USER, then the "sh/install.sh" script blows up trying to use "$RUN_AS_USER:$RUN_AS_USER" as an identifier. This JIRA is to request the installer to handle the case where user name is not equal to group name, perhaps by having a RUN_AS_GROUP type of enhancement to the installer.
