Ssh – FTP 550: Permission Denied

ftppermissionsssh

I suddenly get the error 550: Permission Denied in Filezilla when I try to create a new directory.

A few days ago I changed some settings on the server regarding ssl and imap settings, but I don't think this has affected the FTP settings …

Anyhow, after long googling nothing seems to work. The main idea could be that the user hasn't got permissions, but the interesting thing is that I can:

create files
delete files
delete directories

But not creating directories. I get the error "550 Permission denied" in the main directory and "550 access_log: No such file or directory" in the subdirectory.

Anyone knows where the error could be? Thanks

Use below parameter in vsftpd.conf to give permission to anonymous user or script in linux machine.

write_enable=YES
anon_mkdir_write_enable=YES

Linux FTP folder permissions issue

Firstly I would make sure that the user was created by the ftp user itself just to eliminate any variables. if this is the case then try making sure that you have permission to view the directory itself:

 chgrp -R ftp <directory>

and then verifying with ls -l to make sure the group really is ftp

if you still have problems I would highly recommend using a web administration interface such as Webmin, as it automatically installs common servers such as http, mail, ftp, squid etc... and sets up their respective directories and users with no hassle.

Linux – Can’t delete files from server

You don't have permissions to the file. You aren't the owner of the file. Therefore, you cannot remove or change permissions on the file. Try this in a shell:

sudo rm -f image.jpg
