How to get rid of errors in GADMIN-PROFTPD

 GADMIN-PROFTPD is a GUI based FTP client that is used to run an FTP server to upload and download files from the  FTP server it is the best GUI based application for running and maintaining FTP server, but there might some small
errors that should be rectified.
when you click on the gadmin-proftpd it prompts for password then appears a GUI but it has a problem asking  as below

GADMIN-PROFTPD could not find the proftpd configuration
or you are using a basic configuration that doesn't have
all the features that this program requires.

Do you want to overwrite your current proftpd configuration
with a suitable standard configuration for gad min-proftpd ?"

If I click yes, the program disappears, if I click no it runs but stops after a while.

to overcome this do as below


  The steps in the answer work for me:

1. At the first prompt, click no
2. Press the tab 'configuration'
3. Empty the contents
4. Click save
5. Click standard
6. The same prompt appears
7. Now click Yes
8. A new config should appear
9. Click save
 That should do it!
 Now it is done the next time you login to the gadmin-proftpd it doesn't throw you any error as the starting.
