forward to a form with enctype="multipart/form-data" fails

[Mufaddal Khumri]

Hi,
I have the following code in a  Servlet:
    // .......
   // ........
    request.setAttribute("sPhoto", new Integer(setPhoto));
    error("/c/shared/UserPhoto.jsp",
             "Uploaded Images should be of type JPG or GIF and maximum  
of 800KB",
              request, response);
    // .....
    // ....

       private void error(String path, String message,  
HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse response)
	{
		try
		{
			request.setAttribute("errorMsg", message);

			 
getServletConfig().getServletContext().getRequestDispatcher(path).forwar 
d(request, response);
		}
		catch(Exception ex)
		{
			ex.printStackTrace();
		}
	}

I have a multipart form on the UserPhoto.jsp.
	<form name="editPhoto" method="post" action="/c/shared/ImageServlet"  
enctype="multipart/form-data">
         ........
	........
		<%
		String errorMsg = (String)request.getAttribute("errorMsg");
		if(errorMsg != null && errorMsg.equals("null") == false)
		{
		%>
			<cw:errorBox>An error occurred while updating user photograph  
settings. <%=errorMsg%></cw:errorBox>
		<%
		}
		%>
	.........
         ........
          </form>

When I submit this form to the servlet above and then the servlet sets  
the attribute "sPhoto" and forwards the request back to the jsp, I get  
the
following error:

HTTP Status 404 - /c/shared/UserPhoto.jsp
type Status report
message /c/shared/UserPhoto.jsp
description The requested resource (/c/shared/UserPhoto.jsp) is not  
available.
Apache Tomcat/5.0.28

I do not understand why the forwarded request to the JSP does not find  
the JSP?

Any help on this is appreciated.
