ftp - User permissions linux. (proftpd / nginx)

itemprop="text">

I've been having a complete nightmare
trying to configure proftpd. I've got proftp server working with an sql database.
However I want to have any files uploaded able to viewed by the webserver running on the
same box.

The folders get created in /var/tmp/
as

rwx------ 2 ftpuser
            ftpgroup 4096 Oct 8 20:35 50730c4346512
drwx------ 2 ftpuser ftpgroup 4096 Oct
            8 20:38
            50730f3a811ca

I've
tried adding www-data to group with the
following

usermod -g www-data
            ftpuser

But this
doesn't allow the web server
access.

In proftpd.conf I have the
following umask set

Umask
            0022

It doesn't seem
to make a difference what I set that value
to.

/etc/group (sure I've messed up one of these
two but I'm getting
desperate)

ftpgroup:x:2001:www-data
www-data:x:33:ftpgroup

/etc/passwd

www-data:x:33:33:www-data:/var/www:/bin/sh
proftpd:x:108:65534::/var/run/proftpd:/bin/false
ftp:x:109:65534::/srv/ftp:/bin/false
ftpuser:x:2001:33:proftpd
            user
            www-data:/bin/null:/bin/false

The
ftpuser table in the database has uid / gid set to 2oo1 for
both.

I'm going absolutely crazy trying to solve
this any help would be greatly
appreciated.

p.s

Also,
although if I manually connect to the ftp server I can upload files via FileZilla.
Although this isn't working for the web-camera, although there is talky talky going on
between the server and the camera.

After hours of searching....

The
problem was in proftpd.conf I had.

CreateHome
on

And I needed to
have

CreateHome on 766 dirmode
766

Hours of my life I'll never get
back, hopefully this will save someone else some hours later!
