AW: why symbolic link arnt visible?

["Maurizio Caloro" <maurizio@caloro.ch>]

Thanks for you answer

>I'm guessing what you mean by "will not appear": the web server doesn't show it.
Yes the Webserver Apache will not present the symbolic link folder

>My first hunch would be that the web server can't read (or list) any of the components of the file pointed to by the symlink.
Yes, in the meantime I am also of the opinion, but how can I change this, because the folder structure is given
and I cannot make a right change here. Or should I make a copy of the data at the end of the process?

>Could you do ls -l to /var/lib/rancid, /var/lib/rancid/routers and so on until .../c3560?
Every file in this path "-R rancid:randic /var/lib/rancid"

>Besides: what does Apache's error log say (best just after you tried to access the resource in question).
