User creation is broken

[twells46]

The user is not created at all, though I was able to create a user manually using this curl command while ssh'd into the Wombat, so the endpoint is still fine.

curl -X POST "http://localhost:8888/initialize-project" \
    -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
    -d '{
      "user": {
        "userName": "thomas",
        "interfaceMode": "Advanced",
        "projects": []
      },
      "project": {
        "projectName": "mecanum",
        "projectLanguage": "c",
        "includeFolderFiles": [],
        "srcFolderFiles": [],
        "dataFolderFiles": []
      },
      "classroomName": ""
    }'
