I've been wrestling with this for a few days now. We have an instance of tomcat v5.0.16 using jdk 1.4.2_02 on a solaris 8 machine (kernel patch 108528-17). The use of symbolic links by the webapps is turned on in the default context (I've also tried it in the individual contexts) using: <DefaultContext cookies="false" reloadable="false" override="true" allowLinking="true"> Example context is: <Context cookies="false" displayName="pathCda" docBase="pathCda" path="/pathCda" reloadable="true"> When the tomcat is started and the Contexts load for the first time everything is fine (no errors in catalina.out), however, if I reload a Context (again no errors in catalina.out) using the management interface it suddenly looses the ability to follow symbolic links. I have to stop and start tomcat to fix this. The status code returned by tomcat is: HTTP Status 404 Description: The requested resouce (</path/to/file>) is not available I must be doing something wrong but cant determine what it is.
