It sounds like you're trying to force your notion of what a web app's
"current folder" should be onto Tomcat. It simply doesn't work that
way. The Servlet Spec makes no guarantee as to what the "current
folder" is (a file system notion) in a Servlet container or web app.
Suggest you modify your file processing class to accept a hint as to the
"current folder" and set that value in the servlet using
ServletContext.getRealPath("/") and/or via an init parameter or via
injection. But note that if the web app is deployed as an unexploded
war file getRealPath() may return null.
