Linking error when trying to compile on a shared drive
I am trying to compile OpenCV library on a shared drive on my system. I was able to configure and generate makefiles successfully by using these settings, but when i try to compile I get the following error:
Linking CXX shared library ../../lib/libopencv_core.so
CMake Error: cmake_symlink_library: System Error: Operation not permitted
CMake Error: cmake_symlink_library: System Error: Operation not permitted
make[2]: *** [lib/libopencv_core.so.2.4.3] Error 1
make[1]: *** [modules/core/CMakeFiles/opencv_core.dir/all] Error 2
make: *** [all] Error 2
Please help to resolve.
I think it may be an issue with the mount flags.

This happens, because vfat type filesystems don't support symlinks. Mount flags won't change this situation.
I'm not familiar with CMake, but I suppose you are using some kind of rule in your makefile that is telling CMake to make a symbolic link to lib/libopencv_core.so.2.4.3, which fails.

Well, try to mount yourntfsdrive, then create a file inside and then execute the following command in your terminal:ln -s /path-to-ntfs-drive/name-of-file /path-to-ntfs-drive/symlink-name. If this works without an error, then I suppose you will be able to run CMake onntfsdrive. If you get an error, then verify that your drive is mounted viantfs-3gdriver (mountwill say thattypeisfuseblk).

I ran into the same problem, because I was running on a virtual box instantiation of ubuntu (guest), but running in a shared folder to my mac (host).
Because symlinks are different on the mac, cmake failed. Moving the build directory to a ubuntu only folder (not shared with the mac) solved the problem.
Moral of the story- don't build in shared folders that cross platforms.

Well, try to mount yourntfsdrive, then create a file inside and then execute the following command in your terminal:ln -s /path-to-ntfs-drive/name-of-file /path-to-ntfs-drive/symlink-name. If this works without an error, then I suppose you will be able to run CMake onntfsdrive. If you get an error, then verify that your drive is mounted viantfs-3gdriver (mountwill say thattypeisfuseblk).
