Description (*)

The new validation gives errors when a situation uses atomic deployments where the media folder is set as a shared folder.

Given some debugging, we can see that the $quoteResolved path resolves the symlink:
/home/www/example.com/shared/pub/media/custom_options/quote

While the $mediaDirectory->getAbsolutePath() does not resolve symlinks:
/home/www/example.com/releases/000/pub/media/

By wrapping it in realPath we force it to resolve those symlinks and we end up comparing
/home/www/example.com/shared/pub/media/custom_options/quote to /home/www/example.com/shared/pub/media/ which is what we want to see in situations with a symlink

Manual testing scenarios (*)

  1. Make a symlink from pub/media to somewhere else (e.g. even an external disk)
  2. Attempt to add a product option file to your cart
  3. See how the Invalid file path. error gets throw.
