ProFTPd Problems [RESOLVED] - Haeber - 05-15-2008 01:12 PM

I've read a dozen of threads about proftpd problems, but no one had helped to find the solution.

Problems:
proftp seems to be down, no connections are possible, but the daemon runs

I use debian.etch.

netstat -tulpen | grep :21

Maybe it has something to do with this
Code:
domain-xxx.tld - Failed binding to 0.0.0.0, port 21: Address already in use
But I don't know what to do to solve this problem.

Any hints?

RE: ProFTPd Problems - Haeber - 05-15-2008 01:22 PM

RE: ProFTPd Problems - BeNe - 05-15-2008 03:56 PM

Stop all your FTP Server.
Then start in Debug Mode and try to connnect,you will see what happend
Code:
# proftpd -n -d5

If I stop proftpd, "netstat -tulpen | grep :21" still says that port 21 is listen:

I don't know what do you mean with connect in debug mode, cause I cannot connect to it.

Enable Debug and TRY to connect. Wink

Sorry but I don't know what I have to do. If I start proftpd with "proftpd -n d 5" I only get the posted output. If I telnet ftp://domain-xxx.tld I get the following message:
Code:
telnet: ftp://domain-xxx.tld: Temporary failure in name resolution
ftp://domain-xxx.tld: Host name lookup failure

Could you please help me with a more detailed shell-command sequence? Furthermore it seams that proftpd produced no new log entries.

RE: ProFTPd Problems - kilburn - 05-16-2008 01:35 AM

When you run proftpd in debug mode (-n -d5) it runs directly on the shell (not as daemon) and prints all the output to the screen instead of writing to the log.

What you have to do is launch proftpd in one shell, leave it there running and use another shell to try to connect, using an FTP client (not telnet!). You can also try to connect using your desktop's FTP client directly...


The shell running proftpd will display the complete debug info about the connection try, so if you post this output here maybe we'll be able to help.

RE: ProFTPd Problems - Haeber - 05-16-2008 02:23 AM

The problem is, that there is no output to the shell (no stderr etc.), there is only the posted output directly after i startet the debug mode, not more. This does not change if i try to connect from a ftp client, it seems as if propftd would not be active.

You already had a running proftpd... kill it (/etc/init.d/proftpd stop or killall -s09 /usr/sbin/proftpd if it doesn't work) before starting the debug one.

RE: ProFTPd Problems - Haeber - 05-16-2008 05:11 AM

Great thanks for this tip.

Now the output, if I want to connect:
Code:
domain-xxx.tld (1.2.3.4[1.2.3.4]) - FTP session requested from unknown class
domain-xxx.tld (1.2.3.4[1.2.3.4]) - FTP session closed.

pseudonym legend:
1.2.3.4: the (static) ip of the client
domain-xxx.tld: the domain which uses proftpd
