After installing ISPConfig on my SuSE 9.0 with Apache2 ProFTP - standalone postfix Courier-... Everything works perfekt except of FTP server... it works but not from ISPConfig and is reported offline in services. Have tryed to add Code: SocketBindTight on but it din't help. It now restarts with the following messages: Code: Shutting down ProFTPD Server: done Starting ProFTPD Server: - warning: "ProFTPD" address/port (192.168.0.100:21) already in use by "ProFTPD Default Installation" {my_url}.com - SocketBindTight in effect, ignoring DefaultServer done My Code: netstat -tap | grep ftp follows: Code: tcp 0 0 xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:21 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN 19100/proftpd: (acc tcp 0 0 192.168.0.100:21 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN 19100/proftpd: (acc As I can see, it's not listenning on localhost, could that be a problem? If yes, how to fix my config files?
Please add Code: <VirtualHost 127.0.0.1> DefaultRoot ~ AllowOverwrite on Umask 002 </VirtualHost> to /etc/proftpd.conf, right before Code: Include /etc/proftpd_ispconfig.conf and restart ProFTPd.
Done and my ProFTPd is now listenning on localhost, but (after proftpd restart): 1. Error message on restart stays Code: Shutting down ProFTPD Server: done Starting ProFTPD Server: - warning: "ProFTPD" address/port (192.168.0.100:21) already in use by "ProFTPD Default Installation" {my_url}.com - SocketBindTight in effect, ignoring DefaultServer 2. ISPConfig still reports service FTP-Server: Offline --edited: first line - changed "is not listenning" to "is now listenning" - was my terrible misstake

Yes P.S. and is it ISPConfig sending me an e-mail every half an hour with this context: Code: To: root@xxxx Subject: WARNING: services not running From: root@xxx (root) Warning: service ftpd not running (server: moria)! Message generated at February 14, 2006, 16:00.
The same problem persists for me. As we already discussed in this thread. Even after "SocketBindTight on" and adding Localhost manually to proftpd.conf, FTP Service shows "offline" and WebFTP doesn't work. Client FTP works without problems Falko, if you want to look for yourself, just let me know. I made a clean install today (again ) and can give you full root access.
Evaluating further I'm now almost sure, that this is not a proftpd problem. On my local machine I also get the start-message warning: "ProFTPD" address/port (192.168.0.123:21) already in use by "Debian" but in ISPconfig the Service is online and connection with WebFTP is possible. When I run proftpd in debug mode (proftpd -nd6) and connect through WebFTP, the local server gives me a bunch of messages of this type: athena.myhost.tld (localhost.localdomain[127.0.0.1]) - dispatching auth request "getpwnam" to module ... On the problem server I get not a single message, when I try to connect with WebFTP. The proftpd server is simply not reached, even though he's listening on his IP and on localhost
If you don't need anonymous FTP, you can simply uncomment the line Code: Include /etc/proftpd_ispconfig.conf in /etc/proftpd.conf and restart Proftpd. Is it working then?
sorry I just can't get the meening of your post.... could you explain? (I have "Include /etc/proftpd_ispconfig.conf" in my proftpd.conf file and uncommenced)
Sorry, I meant, comment it out: Code: [B][COLOR="Red"]#[/COLOR][/B] Include /etc/proftpd_ispconfig.conf
Falko meaned this: Replace the line: Include /etc/proftpd_ispconfig.conf with: # Include /etc/proftpd_ispconfig.conf in your proftpd.conf file. Then execute: /etc/init.d/proftpd restart
Solved ! ! ! Sorry for that ... At least for my behalf it seems, that the problem is solved: As I said, it was not a problem of proftpd nor it's configuration. In my hosts-File, the part read instead (this was created by that Debian Image I started from) Since I removed the "localhost", FTP is "online" and WebFTP is working. Right before, I found another workaround for the "Offline"-Problem: I changed the check_FTP in the check_services and check_services_adm Plugins from "localhost" to "127.0.0.1" and from then FTP was online and the server was maneagable from within the interface. Maybe this helps out, if someone else's problem is not located in the hosts-File
