Help starting ProFTPD

linux-howto

http://forums.fedoraforum.org – As a "Linux Newbie" I'm trying to understand errors. I gave up on the Fedora 17 default sftp and am now trying to get ProFtpd Started. When I issued "service start proftpd" I get the following output: Quote: service proftpd start Redirecting to /bin/systemctl start proftpd.service Job failed. See system journal and 'systemctl status' for details. So for starters, Where do I access the "system journal" ? The systemctl status reads: Quote: proftpd.service loaded failed f (HowTos)

Startup Service 21 weeks 3 days ago

I have configured Unbound DNS and it works great if I start it as root using unbound.

could not start mysql 1 year 2 weeks ago

I am a new user to fedora/linux systems >> Kindly help i want to start "mysql" on fedora 16

[root@localhost dear]# service mysqld start Redirecting to /bin/systemctl start mysqld.service Job failed.

I recently upgraded my server to use the latest Proftpd - first time in a year probably I got it up to date (don't ask how painful that was. I promise to be better).

Hello everybody. I have to install openvpn in fedora 17 but i meet some problems. When i do "systemctl enable openvpn@server.service" , i have something like that : [root@alouvpn ~]# systemctl restart openvpn@server.service Job failed.

I wrote a small init script for proftpd (latest stable version, compiled myself) and am noticing that the executable exits with status 0 even if server fails to start (in my case, for example, due to SSH port conflict).

Shouldn’t it exit with > 0? Or, How can a script detect whether startup was successful short of sleeping for arbitrary time and checking for PID?

# ./proftpd # echo $?

Configure ProFTPd 17 weeks 1 day ago

I installed proftpd earlier and tried to configure it as a service with (x)inetd so that it automatically starts at boot, however, I can't find a tutorial on how to set it up like that. Its not listed under systemctl, chkconfig, or service as a viable option. Is there something I'm missing?

Hello,
