Vesta Control Panel - Forum

Hello. I'm running VestaCP with Apache as webserver and nginx as caching proxy. Everything was just fine until I disabled nginx support for one of my sites. After that backups are not created. I looked through the logs and obviously this is what it's all about: backup.log 2018-03-08 18:27:01 -- WEB ...

OK, I mistyped the domain name, so it was unavailable. Really hope that helps =)
But I think you must agree that this kind of "solution" is not something that worths sharing.

Forget about it. Just me being dumb =)

Same problem, but it occurs only for one subdomain - for two others SSL enabled without any problem. If you need logs tell me which ones exactly.

In case anyone is having the same issue I reverted that line back /bin/nologin and executed these lines: echo "/bin/nologin" >> /etc/shells echo "/usr/sbin/nologin" >> /etc/shells it is now working Oh.

Well you can try to set up a new password for that user via SSH: But as far as I remember exactly what you described happens when you try to connect via SFTP using additional FTP account. Some FTP clients offer that mode by default.

First make sure you're trying to connect using FTP protocol - not SFTP!

Yes only main account can access to SSH / SFTP additional account is only for FTP. There is no warning but say " Addtional FTP account" not say additional user / SFTP or SSH account " Maybe as you orther people have problemas try connecting by sftp :/ Most likely. And probably my trouble was caused...
