title: Not following symbolic link after changing remote server PHP
body: <p>After changing remote servers (but not the content being hosted in it), my symbolic links are no longer being followed by apache through virtual hosts.</p>
  
  <p>When I go into the terminal and perform ls -alt it shows that the symlink is there and correct.</p>
  
  <p>The path where the symlink is going to (and suppose to be going to is correct) and the content expected is still there.</p>
  
  <p>I have performed svn switch on the root of the content that the symlink is going to so its updated to the current server.</p>
  
  <p>I have checked and opened up all file permissions for the content and subdirectories</p>
  
  <p>I have tried svn switch on the content that s symlinking to the shared content, but am presented with this error:
  '.' appears to be part of version 1.7, please upgrade your client version.</p>
  
  <p>I deleted the folder with symlink and re-checked it out through the new server, this is where the symlink doesnt work anymore.</p>
  
  <p>Some of my older projects that were checked out through the old server do follow the symlink to the content with the svn re-directed to the new server.</p>
  
  <p><strong>Also my virtual host which states the option to follow symlinks has multiple places where the same symlink path is used. Each folder inside this vhost has the same substructure to it, but oddly some symlinks work, and others dont.</strong></p>
  
  <p>Any ideas on what I could try to get apache to follow the sym links?</p>
  
  <p>Thanks a lot</p>
