It could not create file because your ftp user:group do not have write |
| 39 |
permission. |

According to the man page here: |
| 61 |
|
| 62 |
https://security.appspot.com/vsftpd/vsftpd_conf.html |
| 63 |
|
| 64 |
" ... the anonymous ftp user must have write permission on desired upload |
| 65 |
locations." |
| 66 |
|
| 67 |
You may want to try setting |
| 68 |
|
| 69 |
file_open_mode=0777 |
| 70 |
|
| 71 |
in your vsftpd.conf and check ftp user or group have write permissions within |
| 72 |
the /home/ftp/ directory. |
