pw: user disappeared during update

[Unga]

Hi all

pwd_mkdb -C master_passwd_template
No errors

pwd_mkdb -p master_passwd_template

pw useradd -n test -u 1000 -c Test -m -M 0700 -s /bin/bash
pw: user 'test' disappeared during update

It has updated the /etc/group as follows:
test:*:1000:

But no test user entry in /etc/passwd or /etc/master.passwd.

What else is needed to the pw to add a user successfully?

Appreciate your reply very much.

Kind regards
Unga
