[Bug 1313450] Re: Unable to start vsftpd on Ubuntu 14.04 (Amazon/EC2 or Xen) with default configuration

 

Please open a new bug report using "ubuntu-bug linux" if the problem
involves the same stacktrace in dmesg. If not it is even more likely a
different problem and you should start with "ubuntu-bug vsftp" (in any
case the command should be run on the affected server). Also note, that
this bug here was restricted to server installs running as
paravirtualized guests on Xen.

Title:
  Unable to start vsftpd on Ubuntu 14.04 (Amazon/EC2 or Xen) with
  default configuration

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in vsftpd package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid
Status in linux source package in Trusty:
  Fix Released
Status in vsftpd source package in Trusty:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  The configuration submitted was modified during testing, but this also
  failed with the default configuration. The only solution I have found
  so far was to delete the configuration, this would allow the service
  to start, but obviously not work as intended.

  If I try to start the service manually using vsftpd or sudo vsftpd I receive the following error message:
  500 OOPS: munmap

  I also tried the default commands
  /etc/init.d/vsftpd or service vsftpd start
