Nani Jon, Try using this... http://www.webdav.org/
Alternatively, you can store the path of the MP3 directory into a config file, and just use normal IO to interact with them.

Worse comes to worse, you could have two applications... one that holds and serves up the mp3 files and the other that does all the other work... I'm sure there is a hole a mile wide in this idea... -----Original Message----- From: ekbush [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Monday, September 09, 2002 4:39 PM To: struts-user Subject: Re: accessing large/multiple files on hard drive That could get quite tricky if you're running out of a WAR archive. If your application is deployed in "unpacked" format, then you could sym-link (on Un*x anyway) to it I would think. So you'd wind up with a sym-link in your root (or protected under WEB-INF) that pointed to the real directory. I can't think of another elegant solution. Maybe someone else can.

I am trying to access multiple music files (mp3 format) form this app. I don't want to wrap all of my mp3 files which total to about 1 GB in my war file. This makes for a very lenghty deploy process, especially when it is work in progress. I just want to put them in a directory on the server where Tomcat is running and point to that directory in my application. How is this done.
