    Default Re: problem with symlink

    Hi, i just installed this on my computer (Win 2k, IIS, PHP 4.2.3, MySQL 3.23.54) and I get the folowing error when i try to go to make_symlink.php:

    Warning: symlink() is not supported in this PHP build in C:\clients\TheHomeQuarter\test\Shop\ig_shop\admin\ make_symlink.php

    Any ideas?

    Thanks

    Default Correction

    Actually, it lists the line number and gives me lots of errors:

    I updated my php to the 4.3.2 now, and instead of getting all those errors, i get just one:

    Fatal error: Call to undefined function: symlink() in C:\clients\TheHomeQuarter\test\ig_shop\admin\make_ symlink.php on line 2

    Any ideas?

    Symlinks is supported by Unix/Linux servers. I correct this problem in a future on the iGshop new version. For help at this time please look on this :


    Faking Symlinks on Windows (Win2K + NTFS)

    Every once in a while I'll bang my head against something really difficult. I needed to make symlinks, Windows won't let me. The workaround is a couple files in the Win2K Resource Kit called linkd.exe and delrp.exe

    http://support.microsoft.com/default...;EN-US;q205524

    It only works on folders as far as I can tell, there is another program from SysInternals called Junction which will do both (although I only had success with files, not folders).

    http://www.sysinternals.com/ntw2k/so...shtml#junction

    I hope this helps those who have experienced this same problem. One step closer to portable applications icon_smile.gif

    This is bullshit, why did they even bother posting it as portable when its clearly not.

    What do we do for a win2k workaround?
