OS users not getting created #62

This module only seems to work if I pre-create the OS users. It is not creating them on first login.

Could you share your config file? Also, could you share what user your JupyterHub is running under? If you're trying to create users, you'll need to be running under a user that can create other users.

I was running JupyterHub 1.1.0 as it was included as part of the AWS EMR I was running. It's a container and it does run as root. I decided to build a standalone 1.4.1 instance on an EC2 today, and everything works fine with it. So this just appears to be a bug in 1.1.0, which admittedly is very old.
