Hi,
I install ftp plugin in the admin panel site and install proftpd & proftpd-mysql in server.
When I want using ftp method, show the following message.
FTP ERROR: Failed connecting to mysite.com via FTP.

Please answer my questions and problems.
1) How to setup and configure the proftpd in the FTPServer?
2) What settings should I do to FTPServers can be connected to the database.
3) Should the mysql server is installed on FTPServer?
4) What should the MainServer settings and what should the FTPServer settings.

Thanks

Hi,

Did you see the kb article here?

https://support.mfscripts.com/public/kb_view/22/

1) How to setup and configure the proftpd in the FTPServer?
>>> Install proftpd and proftpd-mysql as you've done.
>>> Update the proftpd.conf file to the one linked above.
>>> Replace the MySQL connection details within the file.

2) What settings should I do to FTPServers can be connected to the database.
>>> Ensure your MySQL database has remote access.
>>> https://easyengine.io/tutorials/mysql/remote-access/
>>> You can test it directly on the command line via SSH before using ProFTPd.

3) Should the mysql server is installed on FTPServer?
>>> No I don't believe you need the MySQL server on the FTP server.

4) What should the MainServer settings and what should the FTPServer settings.
>>> See the article above for firewall checks, other security restrictions which may block it.

Regards,
Adam.
