Hello everybody 
   
  I am installing the globus toolkit 4.0 . I am almost at the last part of 
installation .....
  With the following command :
  
   
  "make install"
  
   
  I get the following error:
   
  
  ln -s /usr/local/globus-4.0.0/etc/gpt/packages 
/usr/local/globus-4.0.0/etc/globus_packages
  ln: creating symbolic link 
`/usr/local/globus-4.0.0/etc/globus_packages/packages': File exists
  make: *** [postinstall] Error 1
   
  
  It most probably means that the "packages" file already exists.And that the 
removal of this file would solve this problem but it doesnt. I also tried 
removing the ln command given in the makefile. But that doesnt work either.
  Another thing is that the "etc" given in the path indicates that it must be a 
folder.But when i searched this "etc" i find that it isnt a folder but some 
kinda file.And the properties show that the file type is unkown.
  
  Does all this make any sense? If any solution , please tell .
   
  Thank You
