why does this happen?

I've not enabled any ACLs, the ACL system itself is enabled though.

Hi,

I think u should try to add this to your proc.acl and enable it

/usr/sbin/proftpd {
/ rwx
+CAP_CHOWN
+CAP_NET_BIND_SERVICE
}

i believe the problem is related to the capability restrictions on chroot. Your problem is fixed in 1.9.5.
