Exclamation FTP Login Issue (Not using MySQL)
Hey,

I've used ispCP for a while, and love it. I recently re-installed and I'm having a problem getting the FTP working. ProFTPD is running, but it doesn't seem to use the MySQL database that was setup during the ispCP install.

I'll create an ftp user for my domain, but when I go to login, it says Login Incorrect. Viewing the ProFTPD logs it says that the user does not exist, though I can see it in the list of ftp users in ispCP.

I have looked through some of the other threads on the forums, but can't seem to find any answers on how to fix this.

Any help would be appreciated with this. I have had ispCP installed on other servers and never had this problem after a fresh install. I guess something just went a little wonky. I don't know a ton about linux, just enough to get myself into a lot of trouble.

Server is running Debian Lenny.
