After the non-Production instances (DEV, QA, TEST, etc) are refreshed, you may have noticed that the symbolic links, that are used for host program files, get overwritten by Production links and are still pointing to Production locations. To have the links work for that instance, you will have to delete the old symbolic links and recreate them.
Below is a bash shell script which can be run anywhere in UNIX. I would save the file as "xxrl_recreate_symlinks.sh" and execute as follow:
%> ./xxrl_recreate_symlinks.sh
Note:
Please make sure the following are completed before you run the script:
1) File is executable:
%> chmod 777 xxrl_recreate_symlinks.sh
2) The .env file sets the $XX_TOP for that instance based on your company custom top.
#!/bin/sh
##*******************************************************************************************
## File Name : xxrl_recreate_symlinks.sh
## File Location : $XXRL_TOP/bin
## Created By : Abul Mohsin
## Creation Date : June 21, 2014
## Description : This program deletes the old Symbolic Links that are copied over from
## PROD refresh, then recreates them for that instance. If no *.prog
## files found, the program simply exists.
##
## Program Language : Shell Script
## Specific Module : Generic for all modules
## Create SymLink : %> chmod 755 xxrl_data_ldr.prog
## %> ln -s $FND_TOP/bin/fndcpesr xxrl_data_ldr
##
## Execute Command : %> ./xxrl_recreate_symlinks.sh
