BEFORE YOU POST, search the faq at <http://java.apache.org/faq/>
WHEN YOU POST, include all relevant version numbers, log files,
and configuration files. Don't make us guess your problem!!!

You might try getRealPath() to get an aliased path or as I do, pass the
server root as a servlet init argument, this makes your servlet portable
no matter how the server/servlet runner developer handles document roots.
I haven't checked the spec but this behaviour is not unique to JServ, JWS
operates this way as well.
With regard to your question about multiple document roots, the above
solves it for servlets, or if you were asking in relation to httpd served
documents on apache... have a look in httpd.conf under virtual hosts.
