FTP Username error

GiuseppeB

New Pleskian
---------------------------------------------------------------
PRODUCT, VERSION, OPERATING SYSTEM, ARCHITECTURE
Parallels Plesk Panel 11.0.9 update #60 Linux CentOs 6.5

PROBLEM DESCRIPTION AND STEPS TO REPRODUCE
FTP Accounts cannot contain usernames with @ character.

ACTUAL RESULT
Error: Some fields are empty or contain invalid data.

EXPECTED RESULT
Acceptance of usernames with @

ANY ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

We need a username with special characters, because we have an application
that uses FTP account with username as "[email protected]" only
and we cannot change it
--------------------------------------------------------------

Thanks
 
Hello,

Which application are you using ? And pleak panel is not creating the FTP user with the user@domianname. You will have to use normal username for the plesk FTP
 
I have checked and found that cPanel does not allow create FTP accounts with @ symbol.

In Plesk ftp account is rigidly connected to system user. And Linux does not allow @ symbol in name of system user:

[root@ppu11-5 ~]# useradd asd@asd
useradd: invalid user name 'asd@asd'

It 's true, cPanel does not allow the @
but complete the username "pippo" with: @domain.com
and must necessarily use the full username "[email protected]".

However, if it is not editable, I am forced to give up the service
thank you very match
