vsftp FC4: 500 OOPS: Cannot change directory

[Rioh Rizzio]

Tried that, also tried: 

 

Chmod 777 /var/www/html/foo

 

with the same result. It acts like a permissions/ownership issue of some
kind but at the moment I am at a loss as to who is "guarding" to path.

 

What do you think? Any other suggestions?

Issue the following command

 

   ls -ld /var/www/html/foo

 

you should get something that looks like

 

   drwxr-xr-x  4 root root 4096 Mar  7 13:17 /var/www/html/foo

 

Make sure that the owner of foo is the same as the user who is using it as a
home directory.

 

   chown foouser:foouser /var/www/html/foo

I have created an account which does not user /home, instead it uses
/var/www/html/foo. When I ftp to the account I get the following message:

 500 OOPS: Cannot change directory: /var/www/html/foo.

Login failed.

 

Can anyone help?
