Which ftp server are you using? Are you seeing anything in the server-side logs? Can any users log in over ftp?

You can't login because the ftp daemon is surely complaining of an invalid shell. Check you ftpd logs.

No I'm unable to find the error logs on ftpd and even in vsftpd, To resolve this
issue is there any other option. Say, where i can change the login shell for that
particular user.
Kindly suggest me a better option.
