Um, this code snippet is in one of my servlets, not a JSP page, but however,
since JSP pages do get compiled to servlets, this might be a clue to an
solution for you?
There may be a more efficient way to do this, but this works perfectly fine
for me for determining where the root directory of the web-application is on
the physical server drive.
URL theUrl = sc.getResource("/");
String webapp_base_dir = theUrl.getFile();
return webapp_base_dir;
