All,

I was creating/changing permission's and sharepoints on a folder, I'm not sure what I did but its not good.

My folder disappeared from the gui, but is there in terminal and has the proper permissions for a folder.

I can change the name of the folder, but if I try to cd into it,chmod, or cp it to another folder I get:

"Too many levels of symbolic links"

I've spent 2 days in google world but nothing I've found works or relates. Apple has been trying to help but has not come up with anything yet either.

Any ideas?

thanks

Mike

Could it be that you actually replaced the folder itself with a soft/hard link to the folder, such that there is a circular reference?

Well, its mostly fixed, I'm not sure what I did but I was able to get the data from the bad folder to a new one. I can't delete the bad one yet but the data is out.

ElDiabloConCaca,

Its entirely possible but a ls -ld does not show any links.
