Guys I may have a solution for you. I ran into this exact same problem just now.

Try SSHing into your iPhone/iPod and use the ftp client locally. In other words, SSH in as root and type “ftp localhost”. If you immediately receive an error that mentions something about /usr/share/empty, quit out of ftp (type ‘quit’) and then ‘mkdir /usr/share/empty’.

This fixed the problem for me. Apparently (after reviewing some installation guides for vsftpd), this is one of the things you should have done when you set up vsftpd (it sure would have been nice if the Cydia installer would have done this for us!!).

Hope it helps.
