Description
Description
The following code:
opcache.enable = 1
opcache.enable_cli = 1
opcache.file_update_protection = 0
opcache.validate_timestamps = 0
opcache.validate_permission = 0
opcache.validate_root = 0
opcache.file_cache = "/var/cache/opcache"
opcache.file_cache_only = 1
opcache.file_cache_consistency_checks = 0
will still trigger "File doesn't exist" even though opcache is correctly prepopulated. If I create an empty folder with an empty file, it works as expected.
See (reproduced in Docker, but this is not Docker specific, it's only convenient to reproduce there):

Research direction
Start by reproducing the behavior with the Dockerfile at the linked line and the commands in the linked README. Trace why PHP reports "File doesn't exist" despite the prepopulated opcache and disabled validations. Done means the reproduced setup can load the cached file without requiring an empty filesystem file.
