FTP access problem

[pfeatherstone]

Hi,

I've setup a new server instance using Google Cloud, installed vestacp (looks great so far) and created keys for SSH access. I have also enabled ftp in the vesta control panel for the default domain.

I am able to ftp in using FileZilla ftp client but can't access the default root web folder. When I try to enter mywebserver.example.com I'm getting "permission denied". Folder permissions are currently 751, tried a "chown" via SSH but also won't work stating "Permission denied".

Tried creating new domain and still no access.

Any help would be much appreciated.

Thanks

So the ftp login I'm using is not the 'admin' - it is the username for my google cloud account as to access it requires this using ssh and encryption keys setup in cloud admin - assume this is why not working? When I try to set a new user with same username as google cloud up in vesta cp it says user already exists yet only admin shows in the control panel / users section?

Can anyone help with this issue?

Can anyone help with this issue?

please send us the return of the following command:

Code: Select all

ls -la /home/username/web/

Replace username with your user, maybe admin.
