Hello After trying to get vsftpd and mysql-pam to work without success, I decided to try pure-ftpd. I had my host re-install Debian 5 and I have set everything up from that point. I installed Apache 2.2, PHP 5, MySQL 5, and pure-ftp. I followed http://www.howtoforge.com/pureftpd_mysql_virtual_hosting but I am receive and connect failed when I try to connect with SmartFTP. I found the syslog and it says pure-ftpd-wrapper[2080]: error: cannot execute /usr/sbin/pure-ftpd-wrapper: Permission denied I read on the web there is a bug somewhere in the pure-ftpd-wrapper but I could not find it. Please help. Thank you
Hello Thanks for replying. I am very new to Debian and my hosting service is totally inept. Can you explain what you are referring to? Or direct me to a tutorial on selunix and apparmor that will tell me if they are disabled or enabled. Thank you
On Debian, SELinux and AppArmor are usually disabled. Is this a physical server or a virtual machine? If it's a virtual machine, what virtualization technique are you using (OpenVZ/Virtuozzo, Xen, KVM, VMware, etc.)?
Hello Please disregard this thread I have dicovered that pure-ftpd was not starting at all. So I made a new thread on my problem with that. Just to answer the question it is a dedicated server and I was attempting to set it up using pure-ftpd and mysql. Thank you
