Problems with Virtual Hosting With PureFTPd And MySQL (Incl. Quota And Bandwidth Mana

I tried to setup a preftpd but I get this error message

help please....

thanks in advance....

 

What's in /etc/pure-ftpd/conf/CreateHomeDir? Did you put

Code:

echo "yes" > /etc/pure-ftpd/conf/CreateHomeDir

into it? That's a command you must run on the shell, and this command puts

Code:

yes

into /etc/pure-ftpd/conf/CreateHomeDir. So all that must be in /etc/pure-ftpd/conf/CreateHomeDir is

Code:

yes

 

Thanks for reacting....

Are you sure you're using the correct password?

 

I used the password from the example in the how to....
the password is 'secret'....

 

Please compare your configuration again with the one from the tutorial. Maybe you made a typo somewhere.

 

Thanks for reacting I finally got the ftpserver running I had to adjust the proftp conf file....
@Falko how do I upload files or do I just have to move the files to a certain directory I never setup ftp before so this is new to me.....
thanks in advance....

 

You need an FTP client such as WS_FTP or SmartFTP for windows or gFTP for Linux. There you type in your FTP server's hostname or IP address, your FTP username and your password.

 

thanks for reacting....
I will try it later on
