I installed the pure-ftpd app.
but it does not start.

When I try to start the service, it displays a message saying it is already running, but it is not.

already check with the command "# ps -A | grep ftp", and there is no process related to ftp.

    This is no work first after fresh install, I say half year ago...

      Yes, I sent to you 🙂 It´s not OS error because before I have Debian 9, Debian 10 and yet CentOS 8.

        After TLS = 0 immediately started the FTP, thank you 🙂

        Do you want to disable tls connection for ftp?

        If it is only needed to change TLS = 1 toTLS = 0 in ftp configuration

          aaPanel_Jose I am having the same issue and I disabled TLS in configuration. Still not working.

          Never mind! I also had to change the port for FTP from 22 to 21

          while connecting to pure-ftpd getting following error...

          Response: 421 Unable to read the indexed puredb file (or old format detected) - Try pure-pw mkdb

          how to solve the error?

            sorry for late reply.
