Not sure if a type or not, but you are using two different file names. myfile01.txt and file01.txt.
May want to double-check that.

CL, You need to use the getRealPath() method in the ServletContext class in order to get the path to the file in your web application. String myPath = getServletConfig().getServletContext().getRealPath("/WEB-INF/files/myfile01. txt"); br = new BufferedReader(new FileReader(path)); In order to check to see if your path string is correct, you should check and make sure myPath is not null. If it is null, then the path is incorrect. This problem can also be found in the archives of the servlet-interest mailing list.
