Hi
Operating System?
Permissions in the specified folder?
Are you an admin?

If you read "can't open file for writing" then you automatically should have a look what's there, and think about why this error may appear.

Yes, right!
And i was wondering why there is a double "/" in it ?

Code:

/var/log//proftpd/ftp_traff.log
