I am using Tomcat 4.1.3-LE-jdk1.4 with JSDK 1.4.0_01 on Linux(Mandrake 8.1). And, there is no SecurityException.
I have my user homepage(~lsomchai) setting by <Listenner> tag in server.xml file. it has Test subdirectory and the TestSymlink inside it. The TestSymlink is mount to /mnt/cdrom directory. if I access to ~lsomchai/Test, the homepage will list TestSymlink with nothing at "Size" column and null at "Last Modified" column. then, I access into TestSymlink. It show this message. ============================= HTTP Status 404 - /%7Elsomchai/Test/TestSymlink/ ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ---- type Status report message /%7Elsomchai/Test/TestSymlink/ description The requested resource (/%7Elsomchai/Test/TestSymlink/) is not available. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ---- Apache Tomcat/4.1.3-LE-jdk14 ====================================== Somchai ----- Original Message ----- From: "Bill Barker" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "Tomcat Developers List" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>; <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Monday, July 29, 2002 3:37 PM Subject: Re: Symlink problem > > ----- Original Message ----- > From: "SomchaiDion" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > To: "Michael E.
