Hallo Daniel. As you can see in my previous mail, I also installed first the sapdb-ind rpm. The fact is that this package does not create the sapdb user (I checked with rpm -qp --scripts sapdb-ind-7.3.0.29-1.i386.rpm).
There are 2 rpms that do a useradd in their preinstall scripts : sapdb-precompiler, sapdb-testdb . Since the rpm sapdb-srv does a 'su - sapdb' in its postinstall script there are 2 choices : 1 / make sapdb-srv require one of sapdb-precompiler or sapdb-testdb but it does not make sense to put such dependencies. 2 / Copy the 2 lines that created the sapdb user in the preinstall script of sapdb-srv . Do you plan to put new releases of the RPM (at least sapdb-srv and sapdb-callif (see http://listserv.sap.com/pipermail/sapdb.general/2002-November/015817.html))on the ftp site ?
