Hi, Here is my patch to resolve the timing issue of vsftpd version 3.0.3-3. It looks like vsftpd version 3.0.3-11 has the same behavior. So, this change can be applied to it as well.
Ryan From: Ryan Chu<mailto:[email protected]> Sent: Wednesday, January 9, 2019 3:26 PM To: [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> Subject: vsftpd: init.d script always fails (vsftpd failed - probably invalid config) This appears to be a timing issue of vsftpd's initial script (/etc/init.d/vsftpd). When starting the vsftpd service, the script uses a while loop to make sure that the vsftpd process has been created with the expected PID. The problem is that it should go sleep if it can't grep the same PID via ps command. Ryan
