I haven't verified this actually works as intended though, and it only seems to fire on fast scans. I'd struggle to imagine a real use case for a symlink to a parent directory that I'd actually want to recurse through, but it'd be sensible if you're looking for a bullet-proof general solution. -- Configure bugmail: https://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
