I don't think so that possible that you can run server without acessing it from root access. FTP is used to upload data. So, you can't start the server from FTP

You bought a VPS without root? What kind of host are you using?

It's not uncommon that direct root access is disallowed from SSH. Once the machine is set up there is also very little need for root. All services should be run under one or more less privileged user accounts.

Either that, or OP is using "VPS" and "webhost" interchangeably.

No, you can't run a SA:MP server just with FTP.

What kind of a retarded provider sells a VPS without root access? That's like paying for a whole cake when you're getting a slice of it.

Use http://contabo.com or http://empower-hosting.com or https://trentahost.com
Pretty cheap and very stable

Never use OVH
