After upgrading to 6.0.38 and was prompted to confirm 'pending change', I was getting:
----------
ID: configure_proftpd_mod_core_default_login_msg
Function: file.managed
Name: /srv/ftp/welcome.msg
Result: False
Comment: Parent directory not present
Started: 11:48:00.703999
Duration: 0.953 ms
Changes:
----------
Simply:
mkdir /srv/ftp
... resolves the issue.
I don't enable the FTP service, FWIW.
