ProFTPD is not well suited for generating per-user log files.
The issue is that any configured log file is opened very early in the session lifecycle, before privileges are dropped and before any DefaultRoot/chroot occurs. Privileges are dropped, and chroots happen, as part of the authentication process -- which is precisely when we learn the identity of the remote user.
Log files cannot be easily opened after authentication, due to lack of permissions in many cases, and due to inaccessibility of the configured log path once a chroot occurs.
Obtaining per-user log files from ProFTPD logging is best done by post-processing the log files generated by ProFTPD, and not by having ProFTPD itself support per-user logging.
