We use a dedicated server running Ubuntu 14.04
The FTP service sometimes quits and we need to get it restarted. This means I am stuck a day or to and is unable to work with files on the server www area.
I am not a server guy at all unfortunately (hoping to learn), but when I log on server root with putty I guess I should be able to restart the FTP service somehow as I have root access.
Would anyone take me through the kung-fu required to restart the FTP service ?
I have tried:
service vsftpd restart
message:
vsftpd: unrecognized service
Solution:
The server was running proftpd so got it restarted with:
service proftpd restart
The reason why FTP stopped once a week is a glitch where the log rotation tries to restart FTP before its stopped completely. Adding a sleep and retry solves this from happening.

get unrecognized service vsftpd, so it must be a different ftp server then. The problem is that i dont know what ftp server is installed as we ordered a setup inkluded ftp server but no specific. Seems like i have to await support unless its a clean way to identify the installed ftp server. When im in root i can enter ftp: root@a:~# ftp -> ftp>

OP's original solution (added as an edit to the question):
The server was running proftpd so got it restarted with:
service proftpd restart
The reason why FTP stopped once a week is a glitch where the log
rotation tries to restart FTP before its stopped completely. Adding a
sleep and retry solves this from happening.
