[Debian][ProFTPD]: Permission denied when I try to edit file

I've got a problem with ProFTPD on Debian. I use users from MySQL database and I can login with it, but can't edit files. When I try to edit file, TotamCommander throws 550: Permission Denied. This is my proftpd.conf file:

## Load modules
Include /etc/proftpd/modules.conf

## Base FTP settings

# Port 21 is the standard FTP port.

# To prevent DoS attacks, set the maximum number of child processes
# to 30.  If you need to allow more than 30 concurrent connections
# at once, simply increase this value.  Note that this ONLY works
# in standalone mode, in inetd mode you should use an inetd server
# that allows you to limit maximum number of processes per service
# (such as xinetd).
MaxInstances            30

# Set the user and group under which the server will run.
