    Which version of cpanel are you using? I seem to recall a bug related to what you posted being fixed in a recent release.

    Update to CURRENT 75. If that does work, please open a ticket so we can take a look at it. Thank you.

    Any help on this one?

    I have been getting the same error since the 19th.
    I have not been able to add new accounts.

    WHM 10.8.0 cPanel 10.9.0-C75
    Fedora i686 - WHM X v3.1.0

    Is it possible to "roll back" cPanel to an earlier version?

    I am using the "Current Tree". Would switching to the "Stable" or "Release" trees help?

    We are running C75 without any problems

    ..same here

    i was experiencing the same issue. was running C75 then upcp'd to R76, but still the problem persisted.
    i found that there was no proftpd.conf file so I copied and renamed proftpd.conf,v to proftpd.conf and it fixed my issue! ... very odd bug!

    i'll try going back to C75 and see if it works now with the proftpd.conf file in there.

    hope this resolves the issue for some of you folks!

    Well I have that file so it is not missing. Does anyone have this issue when they have the proftp.conf file?

    Hello,

    Same issue here with 10.9.0-RELEASE_76 and Current_75 on Centos 4.

    Any suggestion would be welcome.

    Thanks,

    Maxime

    Here is what fixed it for me:

    1) Log in to WHM and click on "FTP Configuration"
    2) Switch to ProFTPd (if you are already using ProFTPd switch to PureFTP, then switch back to ProFTPd)

    The problem did only affect my servers if they had PureFTP installed...strange but going to ProFTPd solved the problem.

    Ok, i just got done talking with the cpanel techs.

    heres how this issue was fixed,

    touch /etc/profptd.conf
    cp /etc/proftpd.conf.rpmsave /etc/proftpd.conf

    you can thank, Mike and Darren at cpanel for the quick fix.

    the sad thing is i spent 3 hours and they had it working in about 30mins:D
