Nix-build mainnet.node - error: creating symlink

Ran the below command and the last line was an error.

nix-build -A scripts.mainnet.node -o mainnet-node-local

any ideas on how to get the symlink to work?

if it helps, this path does not exist
/home/node/cardano-node/mainnet-node-local.tmp-12246-1131775024

scrapped CentOS and going with Ubuntu
