Unable to create FTP a/c to a specific path

[invisible]

When i create a FTP a/c and give access to custom path
the following error occurs

Error executing your request

Details

That is not a valid path. Either it is not in your home directory, it contains symbolic links, or it contains invalid characters


That path has dot files and files of user apache , group apache

I dont want to chown.

How can i edit that FTP path manually thru SSH?

Did it

goto SSH

Type
useradd username
passwd username

then edit /etc/passwd file to give username the correct path

thats it

DA is unable to make bcoz that folder usergroup was owned by apache or nobody .. so DA rejecting.But DA shud give proper error reason or advice or force to make FTP
