okay my commute home brought some revelation. The nodejs server isn't limited by *what* files it can server but by *where* it can serve files from. So it can not serve files from outside the tiddler folder or a subdirectory of it. As the static file page referenced by Saq indicates, if given the address localhost:8080/images/image.jpg the nodejs server will only look in a subdirectory of the tiddler folder called images. Even though the tiddlywiki.files tells the server the files are outside the directory, the address it is giving points to a subdirectory inside the tiddler directory and the files are not there. AFAIK there isn't any way to point it to outside of the tiddler directory to serve the file.
The answer would lie in that capability but I don't think it exists. I know with bob you can direct his server to outside directories and with nginx you set up aliases in the configuration file. I hope this helps. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "TiddlyWiki" group.
