Hi, as per the FAQ here: http://www.itefix.net/phpws/index.php?module=faq&FAQ_op=view&FAQ_id=70
I attempted and typed to following after opening a BASH window and going to /home/anis (anis is the user being used here)
ln -s "/cygdrive/e/wwwroot/" "wwwroot"
And I got the following error:
ln: creating symbolic link `wwwroot' to `/cygdrive/e/wwwroot/': Permission denied
The local user is anis, and is member of the Users group. I also tried changing anis to the Administrators group, no go. I also changed the CYGWIN ntsec to nontsec, no go.
You should check who has permissions on e:\wwwroot.
I checked, and Users had everything except Modify and Write. I enabled Modify and Write for Users, and I tried again the "ln" command, got the same error. I put user anis under Administrators group (who has all rights for e:/wwwroot) and tried the "ln" command, got the same error... =(
This should be something realted to permissions. Did you activate user anis ?
