I have an app that ahs to refernce http content outiside of the war.
Since there are many references to the content using URI
"/context_name_for_app/help/foo.html", I cannot map the content to
another context. I also did not want to have the 100s of MBs in the
war.

I am running Tomcat 5.0.28 with JDK 1.4 on AIX 5L.

I tried to do symlinks to the content from within the war and then
access the help but I get a 404. So I added an explicit context to
allow symlinks:

<Context path="infoview" docbase="applications" override="true"
allowLinking="true" debug="9" />

I can get to the app but I cannot get the help symlink to come up. I
put the symlink called "help" in the top level of the war file. I can
cd into the link and it goes to the right directory. All of the files
are readable to the world.

Am I missing something?
