Hi all. I'm encountering a problem with Vagrant when trying to create
symlinks on the guest in the folder that is shared with the host (/vagrant)
and I'm hoping someone can help. Here's my environment info:
Host OS: Windows 7 Enterprise SP 1
Guest OS: CentOS release 6.5 (Final) (using the chef/centos-6.5 box)
VMWare Workstation: 11.1.0
Vagrant: 1.7.2
Vagrant Plugins: vagrant-share (1.1.3, system)
vagrant-vmware-workstation (3.2.8)
I'm trying to create a symlink inside the /vagrant folder such that files
can be added to it from the Windows host.
In my Vagrantfile I have the following:
config.vm.provider "vmware_workstation" do |v|
v.vmx["sharedFolder0.followSymlinks"] = "TRUE"
end
When I try to create a symlink inside the /vagrant shared folder, this is
the result:
[root@drupal-dev-gossep-local ~]# mkdir /var/derp
[root@drupal-dev-gossep-local ~]# ln -s /var/derp /vagrant/derplink
ln: creating symbolic link `/vagrant/derplink': Operation not supported
Debug output from both vagrant up and vagrant reload show the following:
INFO vmx_modify: - Set: sharedFolder0.followSymlinks = 'TRUE'
However when I manually inspect the vmx file after the machine is up, I see:
sharedfolder0.followsymlinks = "FALSE"
Even if I change the vmx file to TRUE, when I reboot the machine it is
reset to FALSE.
Can anyone provide any advice?
Thanks,
Pablo
