If you're using a SuSE-packaged version of Tomcat, get rid of it and install one downloaded from tomcat.apache.org.

Re: mapping directory in Tomcat?

Not much to say; your servlet would take the pathInfo part of the URL and read that image out of the filesystem. The path to your external temp directory could be hardcoded in the servlet, set in web.xml, or read from a properties file (my pref). Pretty straightforward...

That's suspicious in and of itself, but if I were you I'd start with a clean install and make sure it works; then replace the default Context in webapps (the directory named ROOT) with your own. -- Hassan Schroeder [EMAIL PROTECTED] - To start a new topic, e-mail: users@tomcat.apache.org To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
