Your problem is OFBiz image application is conflicting with the image
folder of your root application. One way to solve this is to use Apache
Web server to front your OFbiz instance. This way, you can serve the
images statically and few people claim it is faster to serve static
contents using Apache Web server than servlet engines like Tomcat. This
way, you can also easily have multiple domain serving applications from
single instance of OFbiz.
If you want to go this way, you will need mod_proxy and mod_proxy_ajp
and configure your Apache web server. There are instructions on wiki
that you can search.

Hardik,
can you please kindly elaborate ?
What are the parameters that I can pass through ofbiz startup scripts to
fix this issue?
I have the application in hot-deploy already.

What I would prefer is to keep the application in hot deploy folder and pass
the parameter to the startup file for the external application into the
startupofbiz.bat , this would lead to the external application to start
whenever you start Ofbiz.

Subject: Re: Accessing images from external application
I had a similar problem and if I remember right, the problem was that
images folder inside my custom app was confused with images
application existing in framework. The solution I found was to rename
images folder inside my custom app.

I have a web application that I need to run on the same server as ofbiz.
The choices I have are either to deploy ofbiz to an external server
(tomcat or geronimo) and deploy my other webapp to the same server,
or deploy the application under ofbiz and get the built-in servlet
container to serve the requests.
I found what I am trying to do is described in this document
https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/OFBIZ/Load+OpenI+%28Mondrian+Implementation%29+under+OFBiz
I deployed my web application following this document. However, when I
mount the application on something like (mount-point="/myApplicaiton")
everything works fine. But when I make it the default application and
mount it on ( mount-point="/"), I don't see the images on the pages.
css files are served properly, but not images !
The error I get when I try to browse to the image URL
is error 404. For example, http://localhost:8080/images/lines.png will
result in error 404 only when the application is mounted on "/".
If I mount the same application on "/myApplication" and access it with
http://localhost:8080/myApplication/images/lines.png it will work fine !
Is there any additional configuration I need to do to get the images to
display properly ?
Thank you in advance.
