Why didn't relative path work on Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5?
Issue
- Why didn't relative path work on Red Hat Enterprise Linux?
- It turned out the symlink from /usr/bin/gunzip to /bin/gunzip is broken. The link is there but shows as red (broken). However, /bin/gunzip is present and works as expected when called directly. Here is an example of such issue:
[root@ser ~]# cd /etc
[root@ser etc]# pwd
/etc
[root@ser etc]# ls ../bin/
ls: ../bin/: No such file or directory
Environment
- Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5.7
