If you can't change the env so that the app can create and write to that directory, I think you can try this (some of the info can be found in the docs: http://jakarta.apache.org/taglibs/sandbox/doc/image-doc/index.html).
Add the following to web.xml: <context-param> <param-name>ImageServletMapping</param-name> <param-value>/gen-image</param-value> </context-param> <servlet> <servlet-name>ImageServlet</servlet-name> <servlet-class>org.apache.taglibs.image.ImageServlet</servlet-class> </servlet> <servlet-mapping> <servlet-name>ImageServlet</servlet-name> <url-pattern>/gen-image/*</url-pattern> </servlet-mapping> Then remove the "dir" attribute from the image tags. For example, if you had this: <img:image src="/images/splash.jpg" dir="generated" name="splash-new.jpg" attributes="alt='A sample image'" refresh="false" quality="0.8"> </img:image> Use this instead: <img:image src="/images/splash.jpg" name="splash-new.jpg" attributes="alt='A sample image'" refresh="false" quality="0.8"> </img:image> This should store images in a temp dir instead of the one specified by "dir". Hopefully, the app will be able to write to that dir...
