After upgrading to cPanel 11.50, I rebooted my server. Everything seemed OK, but it was complaining that it couldn't start the FTP server. I tested FTP to the server and it seemed to work just fine, so I figured it was a firewall problem as suggested by the error email I was receiving. I couldn't find a block however, and the emails kept coming. On further inspection, vsFTP was serving FTP instead of PureFTP, and as a result of course PureFTP couldn't start. We've always used PureFTP, I have no idea why the server has vsFTP running. Is this perchance something that 11.50 added? Or do I have to look elsewhere?
For the record, of course when I stopped the vsFTP daemon, PureFTP was able to start without issue.
