Ftp does not create homedir? (Pure-Ftpd-Mysql)

[albin2009]

Hey you guys! Almost got it all working now!

 

Im wondering if when i make a user, are the system supose to make a homedir OR do i haft to create the homedir before i create the ftp USER?

 

Iv'e tried to creat the user and it just says: homedir: /var/customers/webs/NAME

 

But there is no dir created?

 

I got my www map under /home/user/www. Could that be the proble or is it a permission porblem? If it is, please tell me what to chmod.

 

Or is it cronjob that i need to fix? if i need that, what cronjob is it and what do i write in crontab -e?

 

 

Sorry for the need of help, i have been looking around in the forum but i haven't found anything.

 

I have change to PURE-FTPD in the admin panel of froxlor and iv'e also followed the guide in the admin panel. Only thing i need now is to figure out why it doesn't make the homes.

When all services are setup correctly and you followed all the configuration steps then the cronjob will do the rest.

[albin2009]

Dude, i dont know how to set up the cronjob... is there a guide for that?

[d00p]

Login as admin -> configuration -> chose your distro -> category -> service and just copy and paste

[albin2009]

Do you have skype or sumthing, Maby u could give it a fast fix trough teamviewer?? I have done the configruation.

 

Did you read my whole post d00p? 

[d00p]

Yes i read you whole post, it's a bit confusing so i figured you were asking for more than you need. 

 

If you have done the configuration - why would i need to give you a fix? Please post a clear description of what is not working as expected and add some LOGs to it.

 

Also, I don't do skype/teamviewer stuff - commercial support is done via -> froxlor-help.net. If you don't want that, you have to stick to the forum or IRC

[albin2009]

I have setup the configruations on the admin page.

I have pure-ftpd-mysql and iv'e changed the configruations to what it need to be from the guide in the admin panel.

 

I want to know:

 

Are Froxlor supose to create a home directory when i make a ftp account for a customer? Or do i haft to make the directory myself?

 

When i create a ftp account for a user right now, the Froxlor does NOT create a home directory for user.

 

---------------------------------------------------------

 

There is no error in my logs.

 

I have no croon job set up for it, do i need any croon job in order for Froxlor to create home dirr?

 

Basiclly, My problem is that Froxlor does NOT make a home dir.

[d00p]

The CRONJOB does create these directories. If not, then your cronjob is not running correctly. Please follow the configuration instructions for your system to setup the CRONJOB

[albin2009]

What i did was to upload the content to my ftp, made an account and group on ubuntu. I made one account my mysql + DB and then installed the panel from my website.

I haven't done anymore...

 

I can not find the setup for CRONJOB, could u be kind and give me a link ?

[d00p]

There's no link - it's in your froxlor-installation.

 

1) Login as 'admin'

2) Chose 'configuration' on the left menu

3) Chose your distribution from the top select-box (e.g. Debian 7 (Wheezy))

4) Chose 'Others (system)' in the second select-box

5) Chose 'Crond (cronscript)' in the last select-box

6) Do as shown there

 

You should know that, because you should have setup all your services like that. Froxlor and/or the services will not work properly without being configured

[albin2009]

hmm i will try, and post here in a bit if i get probs  

 

The thing is that i can't find a guide for ubuntu, i guess i'll use Debian guide for it.

I dont really know what to install to my ubuntu system.

 

The guide is messing with my head a little bit.

 

But could u specify what guides to use for ubuntu in order to get it to work 100%?

[d00p]

Just follow the configuration-templates in froxlor...it's really not that hard.

[albin2009]

Well, you had exactly right! My FTP works perfectly now!!

 

I dont rly need DNS or mail servers since im running all from home.

 

Im wondering, how do i un-install awstats?

 

I dont know how to use it anyway so...

please learn the basics of your server-system. Installing, modifying and removing software-packages is something you should know.
