After upgrade to 9.5.2 - proftpd log shows "Preparing to chroot to directory"

[Alban Staehli]

Hello,

I just upgraded plesk from 9.2.1 to 9.5.2 (CentOS 5.2). Everything runs smoothly, thanks for the good job done @ Parallels!

I only see one little problem:
- in the general logs ("/var/log/messages"), I see a line that occurs each time an ftp user uploads a file: "Preparing to chroot to directory"
- everything's work
- my only problem is that this notice/error give a lot of lines in my nightly logwatch

So, how can I stop getting this line? And am I right, this is not a big error (as everything's work)?

Thanks.

It is just notification but not error. It is related to proftpd logging.

Okay, that's what I thought. But how to disable the loging of those informations?
As my nightly logwatch gets too big for now.

I found the way to configure the nightly logwatch in order to ignore this kind of messages.

I simply edited the file /etc/logwatch/conf/ignore.conf as follow:

Preparing to chroot to directory
