Changing case-sensitivity of file name on Windows doesn't work
0%
Description
Windows has limited case-sensitivity capability. It is aware of it, but there can't be two files with the same name but with different case-sensitivity, i.e.
typo3.pdf
Typo3.pdf
In TYPO3, renaming a file from typo3.pdf to Typo3.pdf fails with error "Destination [filename] already existed!". I tested the PHP rename function, it works correct, so there must be a TYPO3 check that doesn't work.
Now the bug is filed and I hope to have time to do the debug work...

Contrary to issue 17770 things are quite clear here.
if (!file_exists($theRenameName)) {
// .......
} else {
$this->writelog(5, 1, 120, 'Destination "%s" existed already!', Array($theRenameName));
This check obviously returns true as Windows is not case-sensitive and leads to the described error message.

- Target version deleted (

- Is Regression set to No
I don't think this will get fixed with newer TYPO3.
With FAL on a case insensitive system, we save all files in lower case. So can this issue closed?
