 Maybe enable ftp.debug syslogging and run httpd with -dd to 
 log the correspond 500 debug messages.

 Double check the permissions on fhe files you're asking httpd to serve.
 Is index.html readable?

 yeah - also running under ktrace can reveal issues.  the log files
 should contain a lot more information than the error presented over
 the web reveals.

State-Changed-When: Mon, 09 Feb 2015 23:17:44 +0000
State-Changed-Why:
Submitter confirms via private mail that making the file in question
readable took care of this issue.  Not a bug.  However, the behavior
described here is unhelpful, and I've committed a fix for that with
revision 1.61 of bozohttpd.c, which has been pulled up to netbsd-7 and
netbsd-6.
