Hi,

I have switched to Pure-Ftp according to Cpanel advisory. Works fine, but I already see at "Restart Services" (WHM) for FTP that points to "/scripts/resproftpd" and FTP Server (ProFTPd) as the title of this link.

How can be fixed this?

I am use the latest stable version as follows ...

WHM 10.1.0 cPanel 10.2.0-S83
RedHat 9 i686 - WHM X v3.1.0

I used "scripts/updated" two days ago, so scripts should be updated at all. I do not know anyway if Cpanel released something yesterday or today.

Thanks.

If you have successfully switched from proftpd then there is no problem at all....as from WHM it looks like that ftp server restart points to resproftpd..but actually there is no script named "resproftpd" in scripts directory instead there are two named restartsrv_proftpd and restartsrv_pureftpd. And when you restart ftp service from WHM it will restart the same ftp server that you are using.

OK. Thank you for your clarification, everything is ok then, anyway Cpanel staff should solve this title issue because induces to mistakes and false alarms.

In the usability terminology of today this is a "Lack of Communication" from the interface to the user. I know that they are really busy developing new Cpanel versions, taking care of bugs and so on, but these kind of details cannot be passed, at least in stable versions.

I think that an expensive Web Admin product as Cpanel is, should take care of these apparently minors things, but important things for the user because it looks like something was wrong when the FTP switching was done.

I hope that Cpanel takes note about this suggestion. Above all because I saw this problem two years ago with other hosting provider using Cpanel. Two years is too much, isn't it?

Thanks
