Hi,
I am using Tomcat 7.0.11 and environment is win 7 home premium with
servlet/jsp/jstl with netbeans 7.01
I have form where in I upload the image to the folder C://xx using
apache commons file upload and then store the file name to the
DB.Everything is good till here.
Then when I want to display the same image, I query the database using
servlet and store the image name to attribute like
request.setAttribute("collegesimg", img);
now via front end jsp, I want to display the same image stored in attribute,
I do
<img src="C://UploadedImages/${collegesimg}" width="80%" height="500">
Now this works perfectly fine,but FF/Chrome fails saying cannot load
local resources with 404 status.
Now I can understand that this is FF/Chrome by default do allow to
access local file system on the client.Good till here.
But I am not able to figure out where do I store the images now so that
I can display it correctly and they remain in place when I redeploy the
app?Is their any place in Tomcat's dir structure where the folder is
still called root folder and when we undeploy or redeploy , images still
remains intact ?
My tomcat 7.0.11 structure looks something like below,
