Vsftpd acting odd

I trying to set up a vsftpd server on my local gentoo server. Here is my vsftpd.conf file:

anonymous_enable=NO

local_enable=YES
write_enable=YES
local_umask=0002
#anon_mkdir_write_enable=YES
xferlog_enable=YES
connect_from_port_20=YES
xferlog_file=/var/log/vsftpd.log
idle_session_timeout=600
data_connection_timeout=120
nopriv_user=ftpsecure
ascii_upload_enable=YES
ascii_download_enable=YES
ftpd_banner=You know
chroot_list_enable=YES
chroot_local_user=YES
chroot_list_file=/etc/vsftpd/chrootlist
#ls_recurse_enable=YES
secure_chroot_dir=/var/empty
listen_port=21
ftp_data_port=20
max_clients=200
max_per_ip=3
pasv_enable=YES
pasv_max_port=20000
pasv_min_port=15000
port_enable=YES
userlist_enable=YES
userlist_deny=NO
userlist_file=/etc/vsftpd/userlist
listen=YES


I know this config works, because nearly the exact same conf file is running on my production server. The only difference is the locations of the userlist and chrootlist.

The problem occurs whenever I attempt to login to the server. It says login is incorrect. The user is in the userlist, and is a user on the system. I can login the system with the username and password with no problems. I can not figure out why it is not working. Is there any ideas anyone has?
