passing a file to a servlet (fopservlet) file not found error
Hi, total tomcat newbie question: I'm trying to pass a file to a servlet (FopServlet). The instructions say, go to a URL like this: http://localhost:8080/fop/fop?fo=/pathtofile/test.fo Tomcat returns: javax.servlet.ServletException: /pathtofile/test.fo (The system cannot find the path specified) at FopServlet.doGet(FopServlet.java:78) at javax.servlet.http.HttpServlet.service(HttpServlet.java:740) The servlet source code has FileInputStream file = new FileInputStream(foParam); I put the test.fo file in every tomcat sub-directory I thought might work and called it replacing pathtofile with every path combination might work. Still, I get a file not found error. So, there must be something that I'm not understanding correctly. Why can't my servlet find the file? I am running tomcat standalone, out of the box. Apache Tomcat/4.0.1 Here is how I configured the system: server.xml Service name=Tomcat-Standalone Engine name=Standalone defaultHost=localhost debug=0 Host name=localhost debug=0 appBase=webapps unpackWARs=true Context path= docBase=ROOT debug=0/ Context path=/fop docBase=fop debug=0 reloadable=true privileged=false/ C:\jakarta-tomcat-4.0.1\webapps\fop\WEB-INF\web.xml web-app servlet servlet-nameFop/servlet-name servlet-classFopServlet/servlet-class /servlet servlet-mapping servlet-name Fop /servlet-name url-pattern /fop /url-pattern /servlet-mapping /web-app Chuck Paussa -- To unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Troubles with the list: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]

When tomcat looks for your FO file, (by default) it looks for it in the bin directory. Either try fully qualifying your fo file name or put a copy of the fo file in your bin directory (tomcat location/bin). - Original Message - From: Chuck Paussa [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, January 02, 2002 2:40 PM Subject: passing a file to a servlet (fopservlet) file not found error Hi, total tomcat newbie question: I'm trying to pass a file to a servlet (FopServlet).
