Hi Guys, Users can't log in via FTP (530 Login incorrect) even though FTP is active for their user accounts in ISPConfig. System is Debian Etch. proftpd.conf In my opinion the problem is that no new entries are generated in /etc/passwd. Existing Users in /etc/passwd CAN successfully log in.
Why do you reinstall? ISPConfig works perfectly on Ubuntu 7.04, it would have been easier to find the problem then reinstalling. But thats your decision
Does the FTP users exist in /etc/passwd? Please post the line from /etc/passwd which contains the username.
No i don't have any of these users in /etc/passwd. As I stated in an earlier post (probably not clear enough as english is not my mothertongue) this is IMHO the source of the problem. New users are not added to /etc/passwd. The big question is why and what to do about that
Do you egt any errors when you execute: rm -f /root/ispconfig/.ispconfig_lock /root/ispconfig/php/php -q /root/ispconfig/scripts/writeconf.php
rm -f /root/ispconfig/.ispconfig_lock outputs no error /root/ispconfig/php/php -q /root/ispconfig/scripts/writeconf.php is the candidate i think... Tried that one three times: 1 time start ende 2 times start, than nothing... only Ctrl-C returned me to the bash
The output: start ende is ok. The 2 other times, did you delete the lock file too before you started the writeconf script again with the first command?
So you deleted /root/ispconfig/.ispconfig_lock before you ran that script? Is there a new /root/ispconfig/.ispconfig_lock after you're pressed CTRL-C to return to the shell?
Then the /root/ispconfig/php/php -q /root/ispconfig/scripts/writeconf.php process is aborting before it deletes the new /root/ispconfig/.ispconfig_lock. Maybe something's wrong with the PHP. Can you install ISPConfig 2.2.12 again (don't delete the old installation; the installer will perform an update)? Maybe that fixes the PHP problem.
Reinstalled ISPConfig - same problem. Clean install of Etch and ISPConfig did the job! Anyway thanks for supporting that great product!
