Try creating a file ( createNewFile ), and call ServletContext.getRealPath() on this file. You will find out where a file gets created by default for this web app.

Hi all I have the following problem: I need to read/write a file for a servlet, both are in my WEB-INF/classes directory. I use the code below: String filename="myfile.abc"; File f=new File(filename); RandomAccessFile raf=new RandomAccessFile(f); but it doesn't work, it seems like the file is created somewhere in memory. Everything works fine when is used in an ordinary java class. When I change the filename to be an absolute path it also works fine: String filename="D:\\tomcat\\webapps\\ROOT\\WEB-INF\\classes\\"; .... What am I doing wrong? With best regards Thank you in advance Piotr Bieganowski
