Typically, one uses the request.getRealPath() method to find context-relative paths on a filesystem. Unfortunately, no app server required to provide a readable filesystem to a webapp, so use of getRealPath is discouraged. Instead, try looking at the request.getResource family of methods: these can be used to read files out of WAR resources and other non-filesystem-based data stores. If you just want to serve static resources, why not use the DefaultServlet, which already knows how to serve them? - -chris -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.10 (MingW32) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org/ iEYEARECAAYFAktN5IIACgkQ9CaO5/Lv0PB0JQCZAcTmtlHb82zxWJEcGWo5a8C0 VLEAnivM6TDeBbtnZPxwXU7xLtvcTfYT =nTyW -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@tomcat.apache.org
