Server not responding

Post by hinay » 2020/01/07 14:28:07

Hi team,
When I add Let's Encrypt to my ProFTPD Server, it can't start anymore. Whenever I try to start, it has this error

Job for proftpd.service failed because a configured resource limit was exceeded. See "systemctl status proftpd.service" and "journalctl -xe" for details.

unable to load 'mod_tls.c'; check to see if '/usr/libexec/proftpd/mod_tls.la' exists

address/port (192.168.0.55:21) already in use by "ProFTPD server"

Please tell me how to fix this

Regards,
H. Smith

1. how did you add lets encrypt? How are you trying to start the server?

2. whats the output as per the help "job for proftpd.service failed because a configured resource limit was exceeded. See "systemctl status proftpd.service" and "journalctl -xe" for details." did you see "systemctl status proftpd.service" ?

3. does /usr/libexec/proftpd/mod_tls.la exist?

4. when you have problems starting, can you run :

Code: Select all

ss -an | grep -E 'ESTAB|LIST'
Does it show you that the ip and port is in use?
