OK - things get even stranger. proftpd stopped working on 2.6.32-21-generic as well after a reboot.
I checked again and the /var/run/proftpd directory had gone! I manually recreated it and proftpd started up cleanly. However, following a reboot the /var/run/proftpd directory had gone missing again and proftpd failed to start up. So actually this seems to be a problem with the /var/run/proftpd directory vanishing. proftpd will run fine on 2.6.32-22-generic as long as that directory is manually created after each reboot. -- proftpd will not start with kernel 2.6.32-22-generic https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/591865 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
