Good evening everybody,
I've just downloaded the newest version (2.3.4) of SilverStripe and extracted the files. I read the changelog, too and was happy to see that a bug that caused problems with symbolic links should have been fixed in this version ([88281] BUGFIX: Ensure ASSETS_PATH is respected). This bug occured when SilverStripe was extracted into a separate directory and symbolic links to cms, jsparty and sapphire were created in the folder of the web project(s) to allow using a simple installation of SilverStripe in multiple projects. (For more information see Multiple site support? and multisites possible?)
But after upgrading and testing my project, I encountered the same problem again. I looked into the source code of core/model/Image.php and filesystem/File.php and recognized that the changes submitted in 88281 are not included in the current stable release 2.3.4. I am a little bit confused now and it would be nice if somebody could help me - is there a mistake in the 2.3.4 ChangeLog?
