"EPROTO: protocol error, symlink" during build_resources

[AmirMeirbekov]

Hello

When I run python setup.py build_resources I get the following error traceback.
How can I overcome that issue? I am running shoop app in virtual machine on Ubuntu.

Are you building the resources on filesystem that does not support symlinks, e.g. FAT? That won't work, as npm needs a filesystem with symlink support.

[AmirMeirbekov]

I am building resources within Ubuntu 14 virtual machine (using vagrant and virtual boxes), so no, it is not FAT. The virtual machine is running on host Windows 10 machine (which has NTFS file system)

Maybe this will help: http://www.ahtik.com/blog/fixing-your-virtualbox-shared-folder-symlink-error/

Any difference?
