Vsftpd cannot read userlist file

When I attempt to connect a folder via vsftpd, FileZilla responds with the following
FileZilla

My /etc/vsftpd.conf file has the path "userlist_file=/etc/vsftpd/vsftpd.users". The vsftpd.userlist has 3 names separated by a carriage return. What am I missing here.

File permissions ?

r/w—r—r I think this file was created by root. Doesn’t a user login have read access to this userlist file?

If not how do I fix file permission?

Oh boy, copy from a terminal you get 80 characters a line. My vsftpd.conf file, line with directory location of userlist had spaces after the line (due to copy paste from a terminal). I took out the extra space suffixes.

Problem went away but then I got the "baby died" response. For that added line "seccomp_sandbox=NO". Connecting now.
