500 oops bad bool value in config file for anonymous_enable

This can be caused by having trailing space at the end of the line. Check that there is no whitespace after “YES”. If that isn’t the case check that you don’t have Windows CRLF line endings.

The following sed command will remove any trailing space and CR characters from the specified file:

sed -i ‘s,\r,,;s, *$,,’ /etc/vsftpd.conf

To enable chroot jail in vsftp, Edit vsftp configuration file in your favorite editor

and un comment or add following entry in configuration file

chroot_local_user=YES
After adding above line, save file and restart vsftpd service.

# service vsftpd restart
