I'm new to FTP and I've been following this DigitalOcean tutorial.
Everything works great except that a user (at least in FileZilla) cannot write to the root of his /home/user/ftp
folder, only /home/user/ftp/files
. An attempt to create in the root folder results in:
Command: PASV Response: 227 Entering Passive Mode (104,131,29,61,191,224).
Command: STOR asdfa
Response: 553 Could not create file.
Error: Critical file transfer error
I scanned /etc/vsftpd.conf
file for the word files
but I can't find that config anywhere. I've used FTP before and generally you drop and and the files are right there, without needing to navigate to folders.
Is this a chown
problem of some sort in Ubuntu?
