Hello,
I'm running my BOA deployment on amazon's ec2 and it's been an experience. It works but i've got my eyes on it constantly to make sure it works as it should.

We've got issues with bandwidth over here in Nigeria so i prefer to have a dump of the possible modules that i may need for different projects being hosted on the Octopus instances.

My dump is stored on the ec2 default user home folder and i would like to symlink it to the sites/all/modules/"my_contribs" link/folder. I created a symlink but it didn't take. My site didn't read the modules folder. I changed the permissions to 755, chown'd it to root but still no success.

Note that for each attempt i'd run "drush cc all" and "drush cc theme registry" to clear the cache.

I've searched for available resources online but couldn't locate any that spoke to this issue.

Anyone know what i'm missing?

BTW the command i ran is something like: "ln -s /path/to/folder /path/to/link linkName"

Thanks. This community Rocks BIG TIME!!!

No idea, but this command is not correct. It should be just ln -s /path/to/folder /path/to/linkName.
