-----Original Message----- From: Matthew Hixson I'm using Tomcat 5.0.26 with JBoss 3.2.4. I'm attempting to upgrade from Tomcat 4.1.something that was included with JBoss 3.2.3. I cannot figure out how to configure a context so that Tomcat will serve files from a specific directory. The directory contains images and should be accessible outside of any specific webapp. The files are stored in /usr/local/watermarks and the URLs to them need to look like http://mymachine.com/watermarks/bar.jpg. <Context path="/watermarks" docBase="/usr/local/watermarks"/> I've read all the docs I could find on the Apache Tomcat site and used Google to find examples and I cannot find anything that tells me how to do this. In the previous version of Tomcat I had put the above <Context> element into /usr/local/jboss/server/default/deploy/jbossweb-tomcat41.sar /META-INF/ jboss-service.xml. But in Tomcat 5.0 it looks like that has moved to jbossweb-tomcat50.sar/server.xml.
If you read the docs enough times it suggests that the Context element should be an <anyName>.xml, in {catalina.home}/conf/host/
Where it hides, just the <Context> element in an xml file per app. (I found it useful to name the file after the app)

I did see that in the docs and tried it. Still didn't work. I don't know if I'm seeing strange behavior because of the way Tomcat is embedded in JBoss or what.
