Hi,
I've got a class that reads a file when it is first invoked. When I run this
class standalone, (meaning not using Tomcat), the class finds the file and can
read it just fine. But when I call the class from a JSP under Tomcat, I get an
error that indicates the class cannot find the file.

Subject: Can't find file - newbie question
Do I need to do something like define the file somehow in web.xml ?
No, but you need to access it with ServletContext.getResourceAsStream().
Take a look at the FAQ:
