That said, as a general rule it is not safe to assume that your web application is deployed on a file system. Your app could be packaged as a WAR file sitting on a database. That said, there are some Servlet API calls that can tell you if you or on a file system and if you are, where you are on the file system. Follow up on the Tomcat users list if you need more info.
