RTC: Unable to create symbolic link during load on AIX
|
Hi,
I have a question about load on AIX to my GSA directory. I opened a CCO ticket and was pointed to here. I copied the contents in COO here. Thank you for you help. ======================================================================= XU, KUN (K.) wrote [2013-02-20 09:39:48 EST]: Hi, I loaded this workspace to my windows machine before, but I completely unloaded and deleted it from RTC client and tried to load it again to my GSA directory from backstreets(AIX).

Hi I noticed the error message aid Contains : 0 Unable to create symbolic link /admin/linux_ppc to plinux because the underlying platform does not support symbolic links Have you used this workspace with linux and now you are trying to use it with AIX? |

Hi, I have a workspace that loaded to my windows machine and the beginning. Then I unloaded and deleted it completely from my RTC client, and tried to load it to my AIX(backstreets) machine.

AIX should be able to create these symbolic links.
Has this install of the scmtools (/gsa/tlbgsa/projects/c/cttools/rtc/aix/jazz/scmtools) been run previously by root or another user?
There is a problem where if the scm tool is run as root, the some configuration files/folders are initially set up by eclipse as owned by root. Then later when you run the scm tool as a normal user, this user does not have permission to access these files/folders. This would prevent the tool from loading the native library it uses to work with symbolic links.
Also, perhaps not relevant, but you have two installs of the scm tools on your path?
