This difference shows up when installing the SAIL rpms one by one - the user:group www:www when not available sometimes, the user root (should have been apache) gets assumed - possibly gets corrected during some rpm installation later.

For a plain CentOS install can the user be assumed to be apache or should it be retained as www and does it get overwritten if the file already exists as would be the case here?

Also the user admin will also not be present to start with - does the sail rpm create it if it does not exist?
