you can use context.getRealPath("/") to get the root folder of your web app, then use

I have done the way you said. I get the output as ..
I think the reason is in catalina.bat its set that way. But some how I want to get the
location of the folder installed.
Regarding usage of this property actually i am trying to use it in my servlet at the
backend to initiate some logs and stuff like that. I will definitely consider your
suggestion and presently I am not doing any kind of that.
Please let me know how to do this..
Thanks & Regards,
..Raj
