FTP issue
Hi,
I followed up the procedure below
https://www.osradar.com/how-to-set-up-an-ftp-server-ubuntu-20-04/
to create FTP on Ubuntu 20.04 server but after that I cannot put files into FTP (got issue of no proper permission below).
Within Ubuntu server, I do verify all is fine to FTP like
root@jamesubuntu20:/etc# ftp 192???
Connected to 192???.
220 (vsFTPd 3.0.3)
Name (192???:james): ftpuser
331 Please specify the password.
Password:
230 Login successful.
Remote system type is UNIX.
Using binary mode to transfer files.

you were able to put files after login to ftp server?

I cannot put files to FTP from outside.
my question is about the local ftp you tried. It could be directory permissions issue.
ASKER
Which path (directory) to put proper rights?
Please show us your vsftpd.conf, as well as showing the folder owner of the home folder of ftpuser

This solution is only available to members.
To access this solution, you must be a member of Experts Exchange.
Note: The vsftpd code is horrible to work with. It's design is incoherent.
Can you get this code working + keep it working? Yes!
Will it take you hours/day to muck around with this code in the beginning + on a regular basis? Likely.
You'll only use vsftpd if you're looking for a new hobby because you have lots of time to burn + playing solitaire is getting boring.
https://www.experts-exchange.com/questions/29220417/How-to-resolve-Could-not-start-transfer-FileZilla-on-Mac-Ubuntu-18-04-LAMP-on-Linode.html provides setup instructions for the MySecureShell SFTP server, which is a near zero config SFTPD that works... out of the box... as you expect...
All setup instructions are provided + the config file I use for 1000s of running SFTPD instances is also attached.

Aside: If you require setting up ACLs to commingle SFTP + HTTPS files, open a new question about this + I'll dig up the related EE threads about ACLing.
