How do I write a yocto/bitbake recipe to replace the default vsftpd.conf file with my own file?

Question

I want to replace the default vsftpd.conf file with my own file! My bitbake file looks following:

bbexample_1.0.bb

DESCRIPTION = "Configuration and extra files for TX28"
LICENSE = "CLOSED"
LIC_FILES_CHKSUM = ""

S = "${WORKDIR}"

SRC_URI += " \
    file://ld.so.conf \
    file://nginx/nginx.conf \
    file://init.d/myscript.sh"

inherit allarch

do_install () {
    install -d ${D}${sysconfdir}
    install -d ${D}${sysconfdir}/nginx
    install -d ${D}${sysconfdir}/init.d
    rm -f ${D}${sysconfdir}/ld.so.conf
    install -m 0755 ${WORKDIR}/ld.so.conf ${D}${sysconfdir}
    install -m 0755 ${WORKDIR}/nginx/nginx.conf ${D}${sysconfdir}/nginx/
    install -m 0755 ${WORKDIR}/init.d/myscript.sh ${D}${sysconfdir}/init.d/
}

bbexample_1.0.bbappend

FILESEXTRAPATHS_prepend := "${THISDIR}/${PN}-${PV}:"

SRC_URI += " \
    file://vsftpd.conf"

do_install_append () {
    install -m 0755 ${WORKDIR}/vsftpd.conf ${D}${sysconfdir}
}

But, the file could not be replaced! What is wrong?

Answer 1

you should add to your recipe:

FILES_${PN} += " file you installed"
