Topic: Custom Templates

[Matt Goss]

Hi there!

I'm trying to create a Custom Template for proftpd.

I did exactly what is on the web page for customizing e-smith a number of a times.

Each time, I get the same result:

      The proftpd.conf that gets created in /etc is a much shorter (and non-functioning) version of what I had before.


But I didn't modify any of the files!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


Should everything not be the same?  I wanted to have everything working 100% off a custom template before I made any changes.

Copying back the old proftpd.conf to the /etc dir makes its work.

Any ideas why a custom template with the exact same files would generate a different proftpd.conf file?


Thank You!
Matt

It was pointed out to me that the generated file may simply be wrong in FORMAT.

So I checked it in detail.  
It did contain all the same content as my old proftpd.conf file, BUT, it was out of order and had numerous extra closing tags which was causing the problem.

I'm not sure how to fix this in /templates-custom dir, so I'm just going to keep a copy of this proftpd.conf file I've corrected and copy it over if my e-smith server ever needs a reboot....

Could Charlie or someone from e-smith reply just to let me know this bug is going to be fixed??

Thanks!
Matt

Please report all bugs in detail to bugs@e-smith.com.

e-smith, inc doesn't undertake to fix any particular bug. Bugs reported by supported customers naturally have much higher precedence.
