How do I resolve JBE Issue with loading components - Unable to create Symbolic link error?

When I try to use the jazz build engine to load a bunch of components before sending it off to do a hudson build I get the following issue:

 Hi,

I am facing this on an Ubuntu 64-bit 12.0.4 LTS server edition. The workaround mentions installing the 32-bit client, do you mean the scm client? 

This does not resolve the issue. Can you please elaborate a bit more on the workaround?
