I have successfully setup VestaCP FTP backup to another Droplet in DigitalOcean running CentOS 7 with vsFTPD only and attached to a Block Storage of 100GB. The problem is I can’t download the file from the Backup menu as it doesn’t do anything. You will be redirected to the file link but nothing happens, just a blank page.
VestaCP installed is the latest on Ubuntu 16.04 vsFTPD server is the latest from repo on CentOS 7.3
Already did the instructions mentioned in other thread, including setting the right permission for each folder/directories where the backup is located.

Tried checking permissions by
ls -la /mnt
and
ls -la /mnt/node
FTP user is forge
ls -la /mnt

drwxrwxr-x+ 3 forge forge 4096 Aug 6 12:03 .

just to be sure I have the correct permission on each folder. I also tried,
setfacl -m u:username:rwx myfolder
All commands return successful output and the current permission is 775 but I can’t still download the files.
The backups are located at /mnt/node/ with different folders of other servers that I have.

Hello there,
You can examine the vsFTPD logs and also make sure that the service is up and running.
You can temporarily try switching from vsFTPD to proFTPD and make sure that the FTP and SFTP ports are open on your droplet.
