lrwxr-xr-x 1 root sys 8 May 27 09:12 /usr/bin/startrfc -> startrfc

Hi,

Verify startrfc (SAP?) installation.

Remove "link"

You need to find what startrfc is supposed to be. Right now, it is nothing but a link pointing to itself. Once you find startrfc, remove the link and put the real program back in place.

list_expander is a program in Ignite4 that performs a rigorous health check of all your selected files and directories.
