In the code below, let's just ignore the logic for the string 'tempdir'
... looks like noise to me as it isn't used in the creation of a file.
The call to create the temp file looks good and should store it in the
path specified by java.io.tmpdir. You can write out the system property
to see
Hi David
Thanks for further engaging this with me.
Yes, I am creating the file in an Action, dropping it in the tmpdir and reading
it with a jsp that calls a servlet that reads the parameters and displays.
What I find odd is everything works perfectly when executed from
localhost:8080...

out.close();

Or is there a better way to create a tmpdir and random file
under the webapp.
Look at section 4.7.1 of the servlet spec:
A temporary storage directory is required for each servlet context.

Hi Chuck
Thanks.
But how to I get at it programatically? Is workDir an actual context param
that I can access and build a File from?

It's not a param, it's an attribute - read the servlet spec and the
servlet API doc. Use
: tomcat temp directory

How do I get the servletContext within a method, within an
Action.
Assuming your code is part of a servlet, use the
GenericServlet.getServletContext() method. If the servlet is hidden by

Why however do I get null when I do the following?
File tempDir = (File) sc.getAttribute(workDir);
String tempDirStr = (String) sc.getAttribute(workDir);
The attribute name for the API
tempDirStr = (String) sc.getAttribute(workDir);

Tomcat doesn't have any config for the temp dir that I know of...it's
more of a jvm thing.
I believe Sun's jvm is supposed to delete the file when it's associated
file handle is gc'd. Can you provide your OS, jdk and a chunk of sample
code if how you are using the temp dir? Also assuming
