Tried create symlink under my own user directoryīut still, I’m not able to access my directories/files with symbolic link. The app is called SymbolicLinker, an appropriately named open-source utility for macOS. Tried to change symlink permission but not able to change without error.
SYMBOLIC LINKER MAC HOW TO
Set original directory group as ‘share’ and owner as ‘nobody’ (refer to Public directory ownership/group)Ĭonfigure smb.conf with “unix extensions = no” and do /etc/init.d/samba restart. I did research beforehand on google How to Sync Any Folder to the Cloud With Symbolic Links and on Ask Different, but I still cannot find an answer to this specific question. The culprit is a symbolic link in the filesystem that points back to. it shows only small file blank icon with symlink name and when i open (double click), it pop-up “The operation can’t be completed because the original item for “Album_Photos” can’t be found.” error. This error message prevented users from opening Synfire or HN in a few reported cases. as expected, i able to access symbolic link from command line (when i am in terminal) but unable to access it from Finder. They can only be created in Terminal, using a command of the form ln -s oldfilename newlinkname and when listed using ls -la the directory path is conveniently displayed.
SYMBOLIC LINKER MAC MAC OS
I thought to be able to access my directories which not ‘physically’ under Public or UserName is simple create symlink, I created symbolic link (ln -s destination_folder link_name) under Public directory. To create and place a symbolic link on the command line in Mac OS X, you must use the ln command with the -s flag, without the -s flag, the hard link we are. Just right-click or Control-click on an item in the Finder, choose Make Symbolic Link, and a link to that file is created. A symbolic link is the simplest form of link to an existing file: it is just a reference containing a relative directory path to the original file. Suprise me when found that its not able to display on macbook finder explorer, it shows only some directories (user, public, smartware and timemachine). Hundreds gigs succesfully transferring to my WD and then i realized that it copied to /DataVolume/shares/ directory. A symbolic link (symlink for short) is a sub-option of the ln Unix command that allows for the 'linking' of files and directories across many locations on a filesystem. Simple put it as background process and let she works until finished. Using command line with terminal on mac to manage my WD is easier and i dont need to depend on laptop/pc during copying from external HDD (connected to USB port on WD).
I have My Book Live Duo 6TB, configured with RAID-1 with ssh enabled (i was really happy that my WD using Linux :-)).
