Vbox虚拟机内在共享目录中创建软链接失败

使用yarn运行一个前端项目时报了个错:

tianlang@tianlang-VirtualBox:/data/code/java/master$ yarn

yarn install v1.22.10

$ echo $npm_execpath | grep -q yarn || echo '\033[0;33mSorry, npm is not supported. Please use Yarn (https://yarnpkg.com/).\033[0m'

刚开始以为是babel包没有下载成功导致的，尝试删除依赖重新执行了几次依然不见好转，再仔细检查错误信息，考虑到时创建软链接时出现了问题，直接在命令行中手动创建一个软链接测试：

tianlang@tianlang-VirtualBox:/data/code/java/master$ ln -s yarn-error.log error.log

ln: failed to create symbolic link 'error.log': Operation not permitted        

还真是没权限创建软链接，考虑到使用的是Vbox虚拟机，就搜索了下Vbox开启使用软链接的配置：

执行命令前先关闭虚拟机

D:\Program Files\Oracle\VirtualBox>VBoxManage setextradata "elementary" VBoxInternal2/SharedFoldersEnableSymlinksCreate/code 1

其中`elementary`是虚拟机名称,`code`是共享文件夹名称,具体使用方式可以参考:

执行成功后正常启动虚拟机，再次执行创建软链接的命令：

tianlang@tianlang-VirtualBox:/data/code/java/master$ ln -s yarn-error.log error.log

ln: failed to create symbolic link 'error.log': Protocol error   

虽然还是没有成功但报错信息不一样了，看来设置已经起作用了,接下来关闭虚拟机，关闭VboxManager, 然后以管理员身份运行VboxManager

再启动虚拟机，执行创建软链接命令，成功创建软链接。

再次执行yarn，也能成功执行了.

在使用cargo编译运行Rust项目tensorbase时也遇到了类似的问题:

Makefile:420: recipe for target 'lib/libjemalloc.so' failed

  --- stderr
  ln: failed to create symbolic link 'lib/libjemalloc.so': Protocol error
  make: *** [lib/libjemalloc.so] Error 1
  thread 'main' panicked at 'command did not execute successfully: "make" "-j" "1"
  expected success, got: exit status: 2', /home/tianlang/.cargo/registry/src/github.com-1ecc6299db9ec823/tikv-jemalloc-sys-0.4.1+5.2.1-patched/build.rs:333:9
  note: run with `RUST_BACKTRACE=1` environment variable to display a backtrace

使用同样的方式解决了.
