Hi, Things are now starting to make sence. You most likely had a directory called /opt to start off with. You need to remove or rename it before you do the ln command.

Then do the ln command and try your install again. hth Willem On Fri, 13 Feb 2004, Teja wrote: > Hi, > > I tried as u said it does not show anything as u said, > lrwx -rx -rx root root ... opt -> /home/opt > > So I tried doing it again. > > but now I am gettin this message > [root@localhost opt]# ln -s /home/opt /opt > ln: `/opt/opt': File exists > > Thanks, > Tej > > > > > > ----- Original Message ----- > From: <willem@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> > To: "Teja" <tejaswips@xxxxxxxxxxx> > Cc: <redhat-list@xxxxxxxxxx> > Sent: Friday, February 13, 2004 5:12 AM > Subject: Re: Problem with installing db2 udb 8.1 version on RH 7.1 > > > > Are you sure the /opt link was created? > > If you do: > > cd / > > ls -l > > the relevant line should look some thing like this: > > lrwx -rx -rx root root ... opt -> /home/opt > > If it starts with > > drwx the ln command did not succeed. > > In that case do: > > cd / > > rm -rf opt > > and repeate the ln command: > > ln -s /home/opt /opt > > hth > > Willem > > > > On Fri, 13 Feb 2004, Teja wrote: > > > > > Hi, > > > > > > Below is the result..... looks to me as if the the size didn't get > changed > > > at all. > > > > > > [root@localhost /]# df -h /opt > > > Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on > > > /dev/hda8 251M 67M 170M 29% / > > > > > > Thanks, > > > Tej > > > > > > ----- Original Message ----- > > > From: <willem@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> > > > To: <redhat-list@xxxxxxxxxx> > > > Sent: Thursday, February 12, 2004 10:10 PM > > > Subject: Re: Problem with installing db2 udb 8.1 version on RH 7.1 > > > > > > > > > > Hi, > > > > What does df -h /opt give you? > > > > > > > > On Thu, 12 Feb 2004, Teja wrote: > > > > > > > > > Hi, > > > > > > > > > > Can you check this since I am getting same error.
