Code:

yum -y update wget sentora.org/install chmod +x install ./install

from https://www.rosehosting.com/blog/install...-centos-7/

during installation I got following message

Code:

-- Installing ProFTPD Error: Nothing to do Failed to execute operation: No such file or directory Failed to start proftpd.service: Unit not found.

Now Proftpd is not installed and I am not able to access files through ftp. I repeated the process few times but same same problem occurs every time

I have the same problem. it was not installed so no FTP access.
I am using CentOS 7.10..
I did install proftpd and created the symlink like explained in another post now I get:

[varun.naharia]

Yes I tried that also but only once I able to install proftpd and got above error that you got, Now I am even unable install proftpd on the system.

[TGates]

ProFTPD is installed when Sentora is installed. One suggestion is to make sure that it is not installed before trying to install Sentora.

@[Me.B] any other suggestions?

[Me.B]

Use the centos 7 minimal not altarch we never used it for testing install.

[liamgibbins]

Use the centos 7 minimal not altarch we never used it for testing install.

it was the minimal install that I installed but ProFTPD didnot get installed...

[Me.B]

Are using centos server or desktop.

I'm talking about this edition:

http://isoredirect.centos.org/centos/7/i...l-1708.iso

We never test the others.

Server minimal install...

I think that that one is teh standard 7.0 iso..

[Me.B]

I'm sure you are not using the standard iso. Also centos 7.10 doesn't existe the latest currently is 7.4.

Hi, I'm also experiencing the same problem with them, my Proftpd was not installed with sentora on centos 7.3 , I tried the manual reinstall Proftpd but after installation it can not work due to missing mod_sql_mysql. c. I've been working on fixing things, I've reinstalled the OS many times even installed on centos 7.0 but proftpd is not installed, i think current version 1.0.3 not ready for release . Please help me! @[Me.B] @[TGates]
