Openhab user setup

Setup, Configuration and Use Beginners

I did a manual install of openhab using wget which obviously doesn’t create the openhab user. I’m now having some issues getting openhab to run currently as a service and the cause is that I don’t have the correct priviliges for my openhab user. Other than being a member of ‘dialout’ for the zwave binding what groups and privileges do I need to assign to the daemon user?

I’m debating blowing away my current install and using the apt-get method but that seems risky.

Don’t think there are any other permissions needed really. I just have openHAB installed manually into /opt/openhab and have a user app with full ownership of everything under /opt/openhab. I use supervisor to control the service.

Ok, I think this my issue may be unrelated to security then.
