Have you checked the /var/log/messages for any error messages for FTP?

i logged to to SSH


[email protected] [/]# /var/log/messages
-bash: /var/log/messages: Permission denied

Its a log file so you have to search the entries in it. You can use egrep or tail to look into the log file. But if you are not familiar with the shell and the commands , firstly learn how to use them or get a person that can look into it for you.

Hello,

Check the ftp service in your WHM service manager. If it is disabled, enable it.
WHM >> Main >> Service Configuration >> Service Manager
I think, it will help you
