[richard67]

Pull Request for Issues #23725 and #30736 .

Replaces Pull Request #30802 .

Summary of Changes

This pull request (PR) attempts to implement case sensitive file rename and rename some incorrectly cased files.

It is based on PR #30802 plus my corrections for OSX.

Thanks to @SharkyKZ for the original PR #30802.

Testing Instructions

Testers please report back which server operating system (Linux, Windows, OSX) you have used for your test. If you have several available, test with all of them.

Install Joomla! <= 3.9.23 => check the following files:

joomla-cms/administrator/components/com_admin/script.php

Lines 2670 to 2674 in f3666c8

	$files = array(
	'libraries/src/Filesystem/Support/Stringcontroller.php' => 'libraries/src/Filesystem/Support/StringController.php',
	'libraries/vendor/paragonie/sodium_compat/src/Core/Xsalsa20.php' => 'libraries/vendor/paragonie/sodium_compat/src/Core/XSalsa20.php',
	'media/mod_languages/images/si_LK.gif' => 'media/mod_languages/images/si_lk.gif',
	);

Use the update package built by drone for this PR for Update

• Update with the Joomla Updater
• Copy the files via FTP and use "Fix Database"
• Install the installation package built by drone for this PR as a fresh installation

Now check the file list again => files should in all three test cases have the correct name.

Actual result BEFORE applying this Pull Request

Incorrectly cased files present.

Expected result AFTER applying this Pull Request

No incorrectly files after update or database fix or new installation.

Documentation Changes Required

None.

The "Fix Database" button really needs to be renamed to "Fix everything" and possibly relocated somewhere else, as it now does a lot more than just apply any pending database schema changes which was its original aim.

Sure, but that's outside the scope of this PR.

[brianteeman]

Using the "Fix database" button for this is fundamentally wrong.

Joomla 4 has already changed its name to Database: update structure to try to make it clearer that it only touches database structure changes and not any content changes.

Adding a fix files functionality to this button is a step backwards not forwards.

Joomla 4 has already changed its name to Database: update structure to try to make it clearer that it only touches database structure changes and not any content changes.

And that was wrong because currently it still does other stuff, too.

Adding a fix files functionality to this button is a step backwards not forwards.

Yes, but it wasn't in the scope of the original PR #30802 either to fix that all.

Would be nice to get a test on Linux, too.

[HLeithner]

Tested on Linux works as expected.
