I am getting this error:

"Failed to create virtual server : Virtual FTP cannot be enabled unless a virtual IP address is allocated"

When trying to create a new virtua server in virtualmin.

I search here and found this thread and it explained why but not how to fix it!

I only have two dedicated IP addresses and I want to run all my sites on just one of those IPs.

How can I do that with virtualmin and have ftp? (I don't need annonymous)

Is it something in virtualmin I need to edit?
Is it something in Apache I need to edit?

Maybe you have this options enabled and you shouldn't:

"Setup IP-based virtual FTP?"

Just disable the ProFTPd server in "Features and Plugins" (the Lego block icon). Each virtual domain doesn't need its own separate FTP server unless you have a unique IP for each domain, and you appear to be using one IP for all domains.

This doesn't turn off the FTP server for your customers, it just makes it so that creating new virtual domains on your server works again.

Thanks for the info.

As a new virtualmin user this is confusing as it seems that that would need to be enabled for the domains to have any ftp functionality.

I will try it, test and post back results.

This forum software is screwy!

and then I couldn't edit as the edit link says "Opps! There is a bug in the forum software." :)

Well thanks gromm for the advice as disabling the ProFTPd server in "Features and Plugins" allowed me to add new domains and general ftp still works.
