Hi there,

 

I've seen this problem occur over at the Linux forums.

The main reason for this particular error is when an anonymous user uploads a file the file(s) are owned by the ftp user group and is only assigning r/w permissions to the file.

 

two possible solutions to this problem,

The first one,

1. Change the user group"ftp"

2. Then change the config file.

 

The other solutions is to change some of the parameters of the vsftpd.conf file

Change anon_mkdir_write_enable=NO to anon_mkdir_write_enable=YES

Change anon_other_write_enable=NO to anon_other_write_enable=YES

Change anon_mkdir_write_enable=NO to anon_mkdir_write_enable=YES

Change anon_other_write_enable=NO to anon_other_write_enable=YES

and in the Security section

Change anon_world_readable_only=NO to anon_world_readable_only=YES
