this question is coming from my other question and I need help to make this work. I was trying out for some time and couldn't make it work.
I have a directory inside redmine instalation /home5/onalllev/redmine/public/
and I need the entire content of this directory to be linked to /home5/onalllev/public_html/redmine/
so I can access the redmine application via web browser.
I thought that ln -s /home5/onalllev/redmine/public /home5/onalllev/public_html/redmine/
will do the job but it creates public
directory inside /home5/onalllev/public_html/redmine/
. I need all the files from /home5/onalllev/redmine/public/
to be visible when I do cd /home5/onalllev/public_html/redmine/
- If I am inside the onalllev/public_html/redmine/ and do the ln and the
/home5/onalllev/public_html/redmine/
doesn't exist I get an error:ln: target /home5/onalllev/public_html/redmine/ is not a directory: No such file or directory
- If the directory exists I get a directory called public inside redmine directory

man ln says that ln is ln 5.97 (I hope it's the ln version)
