Chris,
Just out of curiosity did you try creating the Symlink afterwards?
Maybe the application doesn't really care but the installer does.
Just a thought.

Hi All,
Installing Intermapper on a nice shiny new Snow Leopard 10.6 Xserve
2009 Server with an SSD drive and a nice 1TB RAID of Hard disk.
Naturally, I'd like Intermapper's heavily-changing Data/Logs/
Intermapper DataCentre IMDC stuff to reside on my /Volumes/RAID
Partition; instead of the "boot" drive
( i.e. IM is normally installed in /usr/local/....im-stuff-goes-
here...)
So, Being someone unix clueful, I created a Symlink for /usr/local/
to point instead to /Volumes/RAID/IntermapperStuff/
However, the Installer now kacks on this ("Hey Operator - It appears
that /usr/ or /usr/local is a symlink - no dice on install - contact
support").
So, I am following the Dialog's advice and contacting support - and
I think my question here might be somewhat obvious.

How do I get Intermapper and/or Intermapper IMDC to nicely "live" on
another drive in my system?

(Note: the internal 128Gb SSD Drive I want to leave completely for
the OS stuff - and any logs/mail/IMdatabase/things-that-change-alot
I wish to keep on the RAID - as it's easier to rebuild a RAID if it
fails instead of popping off the li of the Xserve to replace the SSD
drive).
Suggestions/Comments/Key lime pies w/whipped topping welcome.
