Known SUSE Linux primary server install issue

In some rare cases, the preinstall checker for SUSE Linux primary servers reports that the webservice user or webservice group does not exist.

Please validate that the user and group exist as expected and rerun the installation.

If the problem persists, set an environment variable to override the preinstall checker failure and rerun the operation.
