Move the file from the repository

[knpc]

Hi,

thanks for your explanation, it's a bit clearer now. But you're talking about Waptdev folders which allow you to create your own packages, but if you download them from the Tranquil-it server, they don't go in that directory.

Does that mean I should create a symbolic link for that folder too?

Thanks for your valuable help and expertise,

Hi,

I tried the mklink command as follows:

mklink /D c:\wapt\waptserver\repository e:\wapt\repository.
An error message appears: "Cannot create a file that already exists.

(Source and destination folders already exist.)"

I want packages imported from Tranquil-it to be copied to e:\wapt\repository instead of c:\wapt\waptserver\repository.

Thanks.

My mistake, I thought you wanted to import your own packages.
Do you have a Linux or Windows server?

My server is running Windows and IIS

I would have done:
mklink /D c:\wapt\waptserver\repository e:\wapt\repository

Your c:\wapt\waptserver\repository folder must be empty, but I can't guarantee anything.

Hi,

thanks for your reply. Indeed, my mistake was that the repository folder on C: existed, so it needed to be completely deleted.
My next question is: If my server needs to restart, for example, for Windows updates, will the symbolic link remain, or will it need to be recreated?

Thanks for your help

The symbolic link won't change. Unless the drive letter of your other hard drive changes, you might run into problems.
