Proftpd stopped working

All of a sudden Proftpd stopped working on my SUSE 10 + PLESK 9.5 box for some reason. I allready did the following things:

- reboot
- updated from PLESK 9.5.1 to 9.5.4

Unfortunately the ftp server still isn't running. xinetd is running and listening on port 21.

h1386148:~ # ftp localhost
Trying ::1...
ftp: connect to address ::1Connection refused
Trying 127.0.0.1...
Connected to localhost (127.0.0.1).
421 Service not available, remote server has closed connection


I haven't changed anything in my configuration before this happend.

the command: "less /var/log/messages | grep proftp" results in several of these messages:

proftpd[7205]: Fatal: unknown configuration directive 'userlist_file=/etc/ftpusers' on line 1 of '/etc/proftpd.include'

etc/proftpd.include contains this line only: "userlist_file=/etc/ftpusers"

I have no idea how to solve this problem and I'm hoping someone can help me with it.

Thanks in advance.

Oke I manually reinstalled plesk 9.5.4 with the autoinstaller tool after that everything is working again.
