[ashley1]

Hi, i created my first account for my server, i gave it an ftp login and password but i cannot connect to ftp.it gives me the error ""421 service not available, remote server has closed connection."" i did some researches, i followed all steps in the following article http://help.godaddy.com/article.php?article_id=1587&topic_id=281#higher ,but it did not help. when i checked the log file using# less /var/log/messages | grep proftp i get many lines of " - Fatal: ScoreboardFile: : unable to use '/var/run/proftpd.scoreboard': Operation not permitted on line 53 of '/etc/proftpd.conf' "
can anyone help please,

Have you activated SSH for the account? If yes, you must use port 22 (SFTP) as an option to login. Also try to not to have server path. I also found some ftp software have problem to login to plesk. I Use transmit (www.panic.com/transmit) . Also make sure port 21 is not filtered by firewall. I had this problem before if these didn’t help let me know.

Reroftpd ScoreboardFile error

The problem probably is that the directory that scoreboard would be in, is world writable. Chmod it to 644. You can also try to give it the user/group ownership which is indicated in the config file.
