ETag: "A797938C31D59EDD08D86188F6D5****"The x-oss-symlink-target field specifies that the object to which the link-to-nothing object points is the file-not-exist object. If the file-not-exist object does not exist in the bucket and you initiate a HeadObject request to access the link-to-nothing object, the error is returned. Make sure that the object to which the symbolic link that you access points exists.
