My ProFTPD is the 1.3.1, but I can not find " Include / etc/proftpd/modules.conf " This file.

why dont you add it?

@GooCarlos

you need to write what OS you have. We try to help, but we do not go through all your posts to find this information. It's important in every new thread you start.

Otherwise we think you use debian etch and if you do not have the file then you did not follow the installation guide - it's just that easy.

the warning about the directive can be ignored.

FTP service can not start, I do not know how to do.

Hi,

exactly same prob with FreeBSD 7.0 and ispcp nightly 11.4

I'm absolutely not known to redhat and here we need some better knowledge of the OS and the packages.

It's importand that the needed packages are installed to use mysql in proftpd - in suse (also rpm/yum based) it's called "proftpd-sql-mysql". This is needed.
then you have to make sure, the mysql modules is loaded in proftpd. Instead of including a module file, you also can use theese two lines at the beginning

LoadModule mod_sql.c
LoadModule mod_sql_mysql.c

We need a Redhat supporter.

oh sorry man, forget that there was a problem with my very specific mysql installation :S (which I have to use for our own product in company)

so I go tryin install the needed packages

but shouldn't be the file exsist /etc/proftpd/modules.conf anyway?
can't find a modules.conf for proftpd anywhere
