2.0 was released in 2013.  We don't maintain it anymore.  Please use a
newer version.

Re: [ovs-discuss] ln: failed to create symbolic link ‘cacert.pem’: File exists

2016-10-12 Thread Ashish Kurian
Dear Developers,

I tried to locate the file and it existed and I removed it. Still after
that process, I get the same error when trying to install a new package
using apt-get. I get the following error when trying to install a new
package using apt-get

Setting up openvswitch-controller (2.0.1+git20140120-0ubuntu2) ...
ln: failed to create symbolic link ‘cacert.pem’: File exists
dpkg: error processing package openvswitch-controller (--configure):
 subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 1
Errors were encountered while processing:
 openvswitch-controller
E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)


And if I try the command sudo dpkg --configure -a , I get the following

Setting up openvswitch-controller (2.0.1+git20140120-0ubuntu2) ...
ln: failed to create symbolic link ‘cacert.pem’: File exists
dpkg: error processing package openvswitch-controller (--configure):
 subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 1
Errors were encountered while processing:
 openvswitch-controller


So I do not think it is caused by openvswitch-testcontroller package


Best Regards,
Ashish Kurian

Is there a file named cacert.pem in /etc/openvswitch-testcontroller?

But probably the easiest way to fix it is to uninstall the
openvswitch-testcontroller package.  It isn't good for much.
