    Do you have a proftpd.conf file in /etc directory?

    You are most likely using PureFTP. Something broke in an update, so the only thing we could do was switch back to proftp.

    Easy fix

    cd /etc
    touch proftpd.conf


    let me know if this works for you

    This is actually the official response from DarkOrb. (similiar to eter4 posted):

    touch /etc/proftpd.conf
