Looks like perhaps www-data user was created but resin user was not. The old deb install created www-data (or used the one that was already there).

No "resin"
$ cat /etc/passwd | cut -d":" -f1 | grep resin

www-data user.
$ cat /etc/passwd | cut -d":" -f1 | grep www-data
www-data

www-data


$ cat /etc/group | grep www-data
www-data:x:33:
$ cat /etc/passwd | grep www-data
www-data:x:33:33:www-data:/var/www:/bin/sh

I think all I have to do is

add user resin

sudo useradd resin

then chown /var/www and var/log/resin to resin from www-data

This not is for the person that googles this for 4.0.25 and is looking for a working solution.

$ sudo useradd resin
$ sudo chown resin /var/log/resin/
$ sudo chown resin /var/www/
$ sudo resinctl start

If all goes well....

$ resinctl status
