I installed Drupal 7 and when I try to add the civicrm (version 5.19.1) module into it, I get next error message on the web interface of Drupal:
Unable to extract symbolic link {temporary://update-extraction-0a20b282/civicrm/vendor/pear/log/README.rst}
and the module is not installed. I would like to know how to solve this.
civicrm/vendor/pear/README.rst
pointing to an unexistingdocs/guide.txt
file.tar: civicrm/vendor/pear/log/README.rst: Cannot create symlink to 'docs/guide.txt': No such file or directory tar: Exiting with failure status due to previous errors
Is there a work around?tar.gz
achive. If you don't have access to the hosting system with the shell, extract thetar.gz
archive on your own desktop/laptop, remove the offendingcivicrm/vendor/pear/log/README.rst
symbolic link and copy the remaining extracted files to the remote directory.
