christophe_ca Posted September 26, 2005 Report Share Posted September 26, 2005 I'm trying to make a symbolic link in my plugins directory for java. When to do so as a su, I get an error message saying:"Operation not permitted". Any ideas?

Steve Scrimpshire Posted October 1, 2005 Report Share Posted October 1, 2005 Can you copy and paste the output from the terminal exactly? (Just left click-drag to copy and middle click here to paste....or left-right click simultaneously if no middle button) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
