[SOLVED] Why proftpd allows only downloading and not uploading

Why proftpd allows only downloading and not uploading

Why proftpd allows me only downloading and not uploading?

I installed proftpd at Lbunto (in virtualbox guest system) via Bitnami XAMPP. XAMPP automatically installed proftpd at first time (and Apache, PHP, MySql).

Via proftpd i could download all the files from the htdocs to my host (Windows 10). But if i try uploading files i got this error from FileZilla-Client:

Start uploading from \ Recording-6.trec
Command: CWD /
Answer: 250 CWD command successful
Command: TYPE I
Answer: 200 Type set to I
Command: PASV
Answer: 227 Entering Passive Mode (192,168,178,25,166,193).
Command: STOR recording-6.trec
Answer: 550 recording 6.trec: Permission denied

I found no restrictions in the config file

/opt/lampp/etc/proftpd.conf

There I also find the FTP login data. I also found the same data via

sudo/opt/lampp/lampp security

Solution

I thinks this could be a problem with the permissions of the proftpd user and the directory you are trying to upload to. Could you check this or provide detailed steps of your procedure ?

Thanks.
