Accidentally Deleted FTP User

[Mobius1]

I had two windows open in SSH Explorer, I was supposed to delete the FTP user on one sever, but I accidentally removed the FTP user on the server I have WHM / cPanel installed on

We can log in to the connections, but uploading triggers a 'critical error' in Filezilla.

I tried manually adding the FTP user via SSH, but it still throws out the same error.

How can I solve this?

Was this an addon FTP User?

cPanel > Files section > FTP Accounts

No, it's the main FTP user (ftp).

I ran:

sudo userdel ftp

and when I realised what I'd done, I ran this to re-add the user:

useradd -d /home/user_account/public_ftp -s /bin/false -r ftp

then:

passwd ftp

But when logged in, I'm treated like an anonymous user.

Seems to be working now. Strange.
