Description

On (managed) servers where symlinks to files are not allowed the Install Tool reports an error if /index.php is a file instead of an expected symlink. This prevents automatic updates by the Install Tool though the update process is probably not even affected by the /index.php. The Install Tool should output a warning only for the missing symlink and should proceed with the automatic update process.

The thing is, the index.php could very well be affected by an update. In this special case the core updater needs to be able to tell you about this, otherwise you might be missing critical changes. (Given you have copied and not require'd the index.php).

#2 Updated by Jan Bartels 10 months ago

My /index.php contains just one line:

require __DIR__ . '/typo3_src/index.php';

This allows automatic updates, of course.
