Here is where I am at the moment;

I created my whole wordpress site using the [Roots.io](http://Roots.io) stack.

I am now trying to run:

> ansible-playbook --verbose deploy.yml -e env=staging -e site=kobol.test --limit=kinsta\_staging

But i got this error:

> /www/\<my\_site\>/public/current exists but is not a symbolic link

I’ve tried to ssh into my Kinsta staging and create the symlink

> ln -s /www/\<my\_site\>/public/current/

But here is the error I got

> ln: failed to create symbolic link ‘./current’: File exists

I’m left in the dark here, any ideas are more than welcome 🙂

For anybody that could find this useful, the team at Roots told me I just needed to delete the “current” folder.  
That did sort things out !

Hi @Fabien_Campana, welcome!

Thank you for the information on Trellis and your experience with it! I’m sure this will be helpful to someone else in the future.

Our forum here is specifically for DevKinsta and it as a local environment.

We do have a blog post [here](https://kinsta.com/blog/bedrock-trellis/) that applies to our live and staging environments.  
If you would like, add a comment there and have a look in case you run into other questions about that type of deployment such as adding our MU plugin for your site.

Thanks,  
David
