You must specify an absolute path when using the setRepositoryPath() method. Example:
upload.setRepositoryPath("c:\\temp");
- or -
upload.setRepositoryPath("/tmp");
Keep in mind that the repository path is used as a place to temporarily store files
that are larger than the configured size threshold. So, no files will be permanently
stored in the location you specify. As such, you may want to simply point to a
temporary directory on the server.
But if you still prefer to use a folder inside your application's context to store
these temporary files, you can resolve the absolute path by using:
upload.setRepositoryPath( context.getRealPath( "/repository" ) );
This should resolve to something like:
c:\tomcat4.1\webapps\fileupload\repository
Hope this helps,

Hello,
I am using Tomcat as my servlet engine. Inside "webapps" folder I am using
"fileupload" as context root for the file uploading application I am trying
to write.
In the code
upload.setRepositoryPath("/repository");
and I have created the "repository" folder inside as a subfolder inside my
context root "fileupload". But it throws an exception saying the folder not
found. Can someone help me with this?
