VSFTP prompt 500 OOPS: failed to open xferlog log file:/var/log/xf

Method 1:

Solution:
Enter the following command on the terminal:
Setsebool ftpd_disable_trans 1
Service vsftpd restart
Press enter. The network is too powerful.

Method 2:

I had the same problem recently, I also got the message:
500 OOPS: failed to open xferlog log file:/var/log/xferlog


This is what I did:

Open a terminal
Switch to root using su-
Service vsftpd stop
Wait for the message: Shutting down vsftpd: [OK]
After this I removed the log file
Rm/var/log/vsftpd. log
Type "y" for the question: rm: remove regular file '/var/log/vsftpd. log '?
Service vsftpd start

After I did this everything worked OK.
Vsftpd created a new log file in/var/log/and it logged every upload/download.
I hope this have helped you.
