I am unable to create a bosh release from learn-bosh-release tutorial given here

Getting the following error:

vagrant@bosh-lite:~/workspace/learn-bosh-release$ bosh create release

Finally got rid of the issue.

Was using Git-bash over Windows 10 for working with bosh and had setup a bosh-lite VM using Vagrant. Issue with symlink - Protocol Error was due to Git-bash not having administrative privileges.

Resolution :

  • Start git-bash or cmd as an Administrator on Windows
  • vagrant ssh into the bosh-lite vm
  • Now bosh create release was able to write a manifest file successfully
