Firstly - I couldn't find a reference to a user-list on the jakarta site
- so apologies for barging in if this is a private party...
I am testing a servlet container running watchdog packed (i.e. stright
from the war).
The spec (2.3) says :
"
SRV.4.5 Path Translation Methods
There are two convenience methods in the API which allow the Developer
to obtain the file system path equivalent to a particular path. These
methods are:
o ServletContext.getRealPath
o HttpServletRequest.getPathTranslated
The getRealPath method takes a String argument and returns a String
representation of a file on the local file system to which a path
corresponds. The getPathTranslated method computes the real path of the
pathInfo of the request. In situations where the servlet container
cannot determine a valid file path for these methods, such as when the
web application is executed from an archive, on a remote file system not
accessible locally, or in a database, these methods must return null.

Watchdog does not seem to be making allowances for this:
[java] [watchdog] Response and golden files lengths do not match!
[java] [watchdog] Server response length: 163
[java] [watchdog] Goldenfile length: 28

If values returned from these methods may vary according to deployment,
then apps should be prepared to deal with the possible values - and so
should watchdog ??? Or have I missed a chance to configure watchdog, so
that it knows that is running without a filesystem?
