Howdy -- you could be seeing a package bug, or a configuration issue.

Hopefully if that's a package bug, Debian will issue a fix for that soon. In the meantime, you may want to try the workaround mentioned in the stackoverflow post, by adding the retry parameter they mentioned to the init script.

You may also need to restart the Proftpd service to get it up and running again.

If you continue to see problems, be sure to review the proftpd logs for any clues.

Since you're using Virtualmin GPL though, and it looks like you're seeing a packaging bug or a configuration issue -- if you had any followup questions, you'd actually want to use the Forums to go over those. We monitor the Forums, along with lots of wonderful folks in the community!
