    Try adding a user through adduser user .

      Check out the man useradd

      Add a new user and specify a home folder.

       sudo useradd -d /home/testuser -m testuser

      Set user password

       sudo passwd testuser

        Why

        Because by default the home directory is not created.

        How to create a full user?

        Use the -m option:

        useradd -m user
