It seems to be not connected. Even with a totally screwed up symlink it does 
work.

The problem seems to be that 

Debian uses

/var/lib/gnumed/server

while I used

/usr/lib/gnumed-server

observer one level less

I have changed to 
/usr/lib/gnumed/server 

since which make the symlink appear where it should be. Seems the two issues 
were not connected.
