user_save() returns FALSE

Question

I am trying to use user_save api. i have passed the following object ($user)

object(stdClass)#30 (6) {
  ["name"]=>
  string(12) "user_name"
  ["mail"]=>
  string(22) "[email protected]"
  ["pass"]=>
  int(1311514302)
  ["created"]=>
  int(1311514302)
  ["status"]=>
  int(1)
  ["roles"]=>
  array(1) {
    [0]=>
    string(10) "OauthUsers"
  }
}

I have used the following function:

$user = new stdClass();
$user->name = $userdata['name'];
$user->mail = $userdata['email'];
$user->pass = time();
$user->created = time();
$user->status = 1;
$user->roles = array('OauthUsers');
user_save($user);

I have tried to drop the "roles" property as well, but in all the cases user_save() returns FALSE.

Do you have any idea of what I am doing wrong?

UPDATED:

If you are going to create new users using user_save() then follow the following syntax.

$user = array(
   'name' => $userdata['name'],
   'mail' => $userdata['mail'],
   'init' => $userdata['mail'],
   'pass' => user_password(8),
);

Now call the function user_save() and pass the user info as second arg.

$account = user_save(null, $user);
if($account){
     _user_mail_notify('register_admin_created', $account);
}

To update values for already saved user.

$account = user_load(array('uid' => $userdata['uid']));
$updates = array(
    'pass' => user_password(),
    'name' => 'new_name',
    'roles' => array(
        <rid> => '<role title>';
    ),
);

user_save($account, $updates);
