How to restart proftpd and exim on vdi servers?
I can't do it by webhost manager because I receive an error! Also how I can replace this file.


Any body can help me please?

Thanx.

Exim

/etc/rc.d/init.d/exim restart

ProFTPd

/etc/rc.d/init.d/proftpd restart

But same problem exim and proftpd failed

Any body know another step to fix this problem or tell me how I can replace this file?

Thank you agine.

Try /etc/rc.d/init.d/proftpd stop


/etc/rc.d/init.d/exim stop

And then start them.

It can be possible that the start up files are corrupted.

same problem

Look in the log files for exim and proftpd, and see if there is an error message.
