We have been running JetSpeed (ala Turbine) under WebSphere 3.5.4 for
sometime now. I don't have access to the server right now, but I believe we
are also running EFix PQ50372.jar. The application team decided to run it
as a root application, which basically means that everything is served via
WebSphere.
For the gifs, pdfs, ppt, etc to be served via WebSphere, yes the file
serving servlet is required. The only context which we are mapping is
/portal/* which maps to Turbine. However, as WebSphere is serving
everything, you must also indicate the appropriate mime-type for the
extension which you are serving. So, something like
<mime-mapping>
<extension>pdf</extension>
<mime-type>application/pdf</mime-type>
</mime-mapping>
is required. You can either do this via the web.xml file, or via the WAS
console. Please note, we did NOT include anything special for gifs, jpegs,
etc.
I'm not familiar with VA Java, so I hope this helps.

I don't know if this helps or not, but I had a similar problem getting a
turbine app to run under Resin. In order to get my images to load, I had
to add a specific servlet-mapping to my web.xml.
The following works...
<servlet-mapping>
<servlet-name>app</servlet-name>
<url-pattern>servlet/*</url-pattern>
</servlet-mapping>
(and can be accessed at URL: http://localhost:8080/app/servlet)
With a url-pattern of just "/*" instead of "servlet/*" it works, but the
images/css/scripts... won't load.
(and with just "*" it never leaves the first page)
(with props to Scott Eade who figured this out and answered a how-to on the
resin listserv)
I dunno if this helps at all, but maybe...
