I'm trying to configure an FTP server on debian 8. I'm using the basic conf file of proftpd, found [here](http://www.proftpd.org/docs/configs/basic.conf) Now when I try to start the server I get this error:
[....]
 Starting proftpd (via systemctl): proftpd.serviceJob for proftpd.service failed. See 'systemctl status proftpd.service' and 'journalctl -xn' for details.
 failed!
logs:

Any idea about the problem?
