Or one service and a manually defined one. > The same happend on my server with the `nginx` group. Same problem here; you're probably adding an nginx group twice in some way. This is especially concerning, given that it's groups twice – for some reason nothing is adding additional users or else that check would have been triggered first. > I reverted it for the mean time, as I find it pretty grave...
