Can you give us more information, which OS you are using, i386 or x86_64 etc? Then we can check if we know the problem.
 
In your proftpd.conf (usually /etc/proftpd.conf) you should have a line beginning with DisplayFirstChdir, just replace this with DisplayChdir.

DisplayFirstChdir Description
This directive has been deprecated with ProFTPD 1.3.1rc1. Please use DisplayChdir instead.

The DisplayFirstChdir directive configures an ASCII text filename which will be displayed to the user the first time they change into a directory (via CWD) per a given session.
