I'm trying to install JasperReports Server on an Amaxon Linux AMI, but part way through the install I get the following message:
Unable to create symbolic link /opt/jasperreports-server-cp-5.5.0/postgresql/bin/postmaster -> postgresAbort, Retry, Ignore ? [A/r/i]I can tell it to ignore, but after nine variations of this with different files, I get this:
Error: There has been an error.Error creating dynamic link postgres/opt/jasperreports-server-cp-5.5.0/postgresql/bin/postmasterPress [Enter] to continue :I'm running the installer as the superuser, so I don't believe there's any permissions issues, and I'm just taking the defaults for most of the installation options, except for not taking the sample databases and reports, so I don't think I'm doing anything outlandish. There's not much else installed on the server, so I don't believe there should be any conflicts, although I suppose there could be something I should have installed and haven't yet.
Has anyone seen similar errors? Can anyone tell me what I'm doing wrong?
Installation error - symbolic links

Thanks to you both for your help!
tkavanagh - I tried installing a standalone version of postgresql and connecting to that, which avoided some of the symbolic links, but then there were some others that came up for OpenSSL, which I don't think I can get around.
ogavavka - I tried your solution next, and spun up a new server and installed on there, which worked! I'd only spun up the previous one about an hour before trying the install, and had run yum updates, installed httpd and a MySQL server so I could then install WordPress too, but I don't see why any of that would have caused this behaviour.
I think I'll look at getting JasperReports Server running on the box solo, then try installing the others on one by one and see if they have any problems. Or I might just leave it on its own server.
Thanks again to you both!
