#14618 closed defect (duplicate)

Relative symlinks broken in shared folder with OSX host

Reported by: withinboredom Owned by:
Component: shared folders Version: VirtualBox 5.0.4
Keywords: Cc:
Guest type: Linux Host type: Mac OS X

Description

If you share a folder from the host to the guest and it has a directory structure like:

/foo

> /foo/test > /foo/bar

and cd to /foo/bar and do a ln -s ../test test it will fail with a protocol error. However, if you do ln -s /foo/test test it will work just fine. The workaround is to downgrade to 5.0.2
