 * I get an error:
   Unknown controller ‘user’.When calling the register:[http://sp-admin-cms.local/api/user/register/?username=unit%2Btest%40jpmedia.com.au&email=unit%2Btest%40jpmedia.com.au&user_pass=XXXX&nonce=XXXX&insecure=cool](http://sp-admin-cms.local/api/user/register/?username=unit%2Btest%40jpmedia.com.au&email=unit%2Btest%40jpmedia.com.au&user_pass=XXXX&nonce=XXXX&insecure=cool)
   I set a break point in json-api-user.php and see pimJsonApiController is called.
   I set a break point in setUserControllerPath, but it does not seem to get called.
   I suspect this is the problem.

 * You need to activate the controller ‘User’ from Settings > JSON API
