Current behavior

using

cy.readFile('cypress/fixtures/ü.pdf');

throws error on Linux Debian (works fine on MacOS):

Timed out retrying after 15000ms: `cy.readFile("cypress/fixtures/ü.pdf")` failed because the file does not exist at the following path:

`/harness/cypress/fixtures/ü.pdf`

https://on.cypress.io/readfile

Desired behavior

Do not throw since file exists.

Test code to reproduce

  1. create file file-ß.pdf on Mac OS, commit
  2. create test file with contents:
describe('page', () => {
  const html = `
    <html>
    <head></head>
    <body>
      <input type="file" name="comment" id="comment_file" accept>
    </body>
    </html>
    `;

  it('should select file with special characters', () => {
    const fileName = 'file-ß.pdf';

    cy.intercept('mytest.com', { body: html });
    cy.visit('https://mytest.com');

    cy.get('input').selectFile(`cypress/fixtures/${fileName}`);
    cy.get('input').should('not.have.value', '');
    cy.get('input').should((t) => {
      expect(t.val()).to.include(fileName);
    });
    cy.screenshot({ capture: 'runner' });
  });
});
  1. commit
  2. run on Linux Debian system

Expected: should pass
Actual: test fails with message:

Timed out retrying after 15000ms: `cy.readFile("cypress/fixtures/ü.pdf")` failed because the file does not exist at the following path:

`/harness/cypress/fixtures/ü.pdf`
