I have been trying for days and tons of google searches and mail archive searches and can't find an answer to the quandry I find myself in.
I need to allow users to upload to a directory in the ROOT context of my tomcat server. For some reason, and it may be a security deal, I can't retrieve the server context for "/" so I can get the actual path to upload the file. It always comes back null. I know that the Java servlet specifications say the null may be returned if the container, for some reason, doesn't want to return the context. I don't know if it's a tomcat configuration, or if there is some other mechanism to use besides getServletContext().getContext("/"). Any help would be appreciated.
