FileNotFoundException when creating FileInputStream
When I attempt to open an XSL file to complete a transformation, I get the
exception FileNotFound. Steps:
[1] Get file location from properties file without problem:
String myXsl =
getProperties().getProperty("fop.render.article");
String contents:
"http://localhost/artimus/pdf/renderPdf.xsl";( verified by logging )
[2] construct FileInputStream from string, and I get exception
FileInputStream in = new FileInputStream(myXsl);
Err msg: java.io.FileNotFoundException:
http:\localhost\artimus\pdf\renderPdf.xsl
Note from the message that FileInputStream appears to change the address.
How do I force the constructor to accept the whole address?
regards,

hi,
May be you are trying to get HTTP file using File Stream,
that's why ;-)

Re: FileNotFoundException when creating FileInputStream
FileInputStream expects a filename, but you fed it a URL.
Is the XSL file within your webapp? If so, don't use a URL to reference it.
If it is not within your web app but it is under your control, consider
moving it into your web app.
If you cannot move it, you will need to make an HTTP request to go get it.
This code will go get it and give you an InputStream to read from (there may
be better ways -- I just hobbled this together):
InputStream in = new StringBufferInputStream(
new URLConnection(new URL(myXsl)).getResponseMessage()
);
This is expensive, so if you need to get this often and it doesn't change
much, you should cache it within your app. Be sure to consider what a
reasonable cache strategy would be, though. If you just get it once and hold
onto it forever, your app will need to be restarted every time the xsl file
changes, which would not be acceptable in a production environment in most
cases.

Re: FileNotFoundException when creating FileInputStream
Is the XSL file within your webapp? If so, don't use a URL to reference it.
It is within the webapp. I began using the absolute reference -
"http://localhost:8080/artimus..."; - because I was getting FileNotFound
when I tried using a relative reference.
I need to refer to the above static xsl file to perform a PDF transformation
on the fly. I am obvoiusly a newbie - how do I do it? Take the reference
out of the Properties File and put it in Struts-Config? I would prefer not
to hard-code the reference.
thanks for responding to me earlier. To temporarily workaround this issue,
I have inserted an absolute file reference in the Properties File. This
will obviously not work once I move the war file to a remote server that I
don't control.
best regards,
douglas reames
