Edmond, Mikolaj has a point... your are using JSP for something it was not designed to do: generate static content. JSP was designed to generate /dynamic/ content on the fly.

Since you have used the JSP to generate the content, that memory is wasted, anyway (unless you restart the application). > I have the user publish their info whenever they make changes to it. Regardless of your 404 errors, might I suggest that you use a process other than JSP to generate these files? Is it possible to have that content dynamically generated every time from the source of "their info"? Or are you attempting to avoid a performance problem in the future? Some of the more foolish implementations of software have come from people trying to solve performance problems that do not exist in the first place. At any rate, Tomcat /should/ be allowing you to view your files :( I'm not sure what is wrong. -chris
