Whatever file you defined as a host in your server.xml will work.. (or any subdirectory of course).
So if your appbase is "c:\someDirOnMachine\stuff\abc\xyz\" And in there you have a folder called "\123\" With a file blah.ext You can just serve out with http://Hostname:port/123/blah.ext -----Original Message----- From: Rob Elliott [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, April 13, 2006 9:26 AM To: Tomcat Users List Subject: RE: Serve a file instead of a page using Tomcat. Thanks for your response, I don't see a "web" folder for Tomcat, only under webapps. Will I need to deploy a WAR file to do this? Thanks... -----Original Message----- From: John Powers [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, April 13, 2006 10:17 AM To: Tomcat Users List Subject: RE: Serve a file instead of a page using Tomcat. If the file is in the web folder then you can just path to it http://localhost:8080/somedir/somefile.ext But if it isn't, then a servlet can read in from a file stream and read out to the servlet's out stream... -----Original Message----- From: Rob Elliott [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, April 13, 2006 8:35 AM To: users@tomcat.apache.org Subject: Serve a file instead of a page using Tomcat. Hello, Users will be entering a file URL with file extension into browser. How must you configure Tomcat to serve up a file for browser download rather than a web page?
