RE: write access to c:\winnt\system32

2004-04-12 Thread Shapira, Yoav

Hi,

I searched the mailing list archives, and found that the jsp compiler
needs
write access to c:\winnt\system32.

It doesn't.

Ok, I guess I read this wrong, or this person was wrong too.
http://www.mail-archive.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]/msg93632.html

Either way, something seems to require write access to the system32
directory because it works fine with full permissions, but fails when write
access is denied.  It's trying to create files like
c:\winnt\system32\files-460905954.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Neither Eric was wrong nor did you read it wrong.  It's a simple
configuration issue:
- Don't start tomcat from %systemroot%\system32 (so it doesn't get set
as the working directory),
- Make sure that directory is not set as java.io.tmpdir (the tomcat
scripts don't do this, but in case you overrode/customized them),
- Make sure the JSP servlet (in $CATALINA_HOME/conf/web.xml) has a
scratchdir you like (see
http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat/tomcat-5.0-doc/jasper-howto.html)

I think that's it.

Yoav,
Thanks for the help.  I added the following registry key to change the
working directory for the service and it now works.
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Apache Tomcat
4.1\Parameters\Current Directory=c:\Tomcat4.1\work

Thanks,
