mistatan Posted June 16, 2012 Share Posted June 16, 2012 Could someone help me out on this? I am trying to create some symbolic links from my usb to /www/ using the command ln -s /usb/XXX/* /www/ without any luck. When I check for them on WinSCP they don't show up at all :(. Could someone please help me? Or direct me to an alternative method (i have tried making one in WinSCP but failed... it gave me the error "file already exits...") Thank You Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whistle Master Posted June 16, 2012 Share Posted June 16, 2012 You have to move your www folder on your USB drive first and then create the symlink with the ln command. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank You this works for me when sym linking /usb/web/ folder to be /www/web/ ln -s /usb/web/ /www/web are you trying to sym link files or a folder? folder makes it allot cleaner EDIT: Warning moving the /www/ folder or any folder on the pineapple is very risky, I would not do it!
