FTP will not enable on OMV 6

    Hat das Label OMV 6.x (alpha) hinzugefügt.

    I installed OMV 5 and have the same error message.


    Here is a log I hope can help to detect the cause:

    I don't know if there are any problem, but the folder I have associated to the ftp service is already associated to SMB service that is working well.


    Thanks any help

    Yes. Mine is associated with the SMB service and working very well also. It's not like I use FTP a lot anymore, but I do use from time to time. It worked fine on my OMV5 install.

    Here is my output, looks like there might be a configuration issue.

    Hi overhome. Yours log is very similar to the mine.


    I also noted that the error:

    Code
    fatal: unknown configuration directive 'IdentLookups' on line

    comes from a config from ftp, but I think it is a script from OMV which adds that key.

    At the moment I don't know what to try.

    It's because the ident-Module is not loaded by default. Just remove the leading # in /etc/proftpd/modules.conf


    #This is required only if you need to set IdentLookups on

    #LoadModule mod_ident.c

    fabiopaolini How is this possible? OMV5 is based on Debian Buster which uses ProFTPd 1.3.6. In this version the mod_ident is compiled by default and not as an external module that needs to be enabled. Are you using a backport from Debian Bullseye? Using backports is not supported in OMV because of exactly the problem you are facing now, backports break existing configurations and introduce new features that are not reflected by the deployment scripts.

    Sorry, probably I made a mistake. I have downloaded the two isos and I thought that I had installed the 5. Now I have changed my instalation where I have installed the Debian and then installing the OMV. My actual install is really the "6.0-12 (Shaitan)". I have the other in a pendrive to confirm soon, but good chance it be a version 6. I will also soon try the suggestions about the fix. Thanks
