Hi,

My servlet is supposed to read the contents of a file stored in the root of
my webapp. I need to set it up so that the file can be found on both Linux
and windows systems. But no matter what path I type in or where I put the
file, the servlet isn't able to find it. What do I need to change? Have I
missed a config file? Below is a code snippet from the servlet:

package com.pixelfiend.linespeed;

import javax.servlet.*;
import javax.servlet.http.*;
import java.io.*;

public class LineTest2 extends HttpServlet {
        ...
        public void doPost(HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse
response)
                throws ServletException, IOException {
                        response.setContentType("text/html");
                        PrintWriter out = response.getWriter();

                        byte fileIn[] = new byte[500000];
                        FileInputStream fis = new
FileInputStream("junk.txt"); // here's the filename
                        int status = fis.read(fileIn);
                        String fiftyK = new String(fileIn);
                        ...

Thanks in advance for any hints,
Garann Rose Means
