Failed to create symbolic link, what should I do? [duplicate]

When I enter the following command on a terminal session.

$ sudo ln -s /opt/utorrent-server-v3_0/utserver /usr/bin/utserver

It shows me the following message

ln: failed to create symbolic link ‘/usr/bin/utserver’: File exists

sudo ln -s /opt/utorrent-server-v3_0/utserver /usr/bin/utserver failed to create the symbolic link.

What should I do?


You should check if the symbolic link /usr/bin/utserver exists. If it does, you could unlink it:

sudo unlink /usr/bin/utserver

then redo the ln command

sudo ln -s /opt/utorrent-server-v3_0/utserver /usr/bin/utserver

Cheers,
