Your installworld error is saying that it can't install without the new
proxy user being added. the proxy user is added during the
mergemaster -p.. So because your mergemaster -p is failing, your
installworld is failing. Fix the mergemaster problem, and your
installworld problem should go away.
So what kind of error is your 'mergemaster -p' giving you?
