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 where your files are going ... by default I think it's usually
the system temp. My install of tomcat 5.5 as a service explicitly set's
it to the temp directory within the tomcat folder. You can look for it
in your .bat files by looking for -Djava.io.tmpdir=
Could you expand on this image tag generation? Looks like you are
attempting to generate a temp image in a jsp and keep it long enough to
return it via servlet. Those are two separate requests (page and image)
and it may already be gone by the time the client requests the image
itself if that's the case.

Further
I see in catalina.bat where it is setup and all the defaults are unchanged. This still does not explain why it is NOT putting the files in \temp and rather in just the root dir of the TC installation. I could explicitly force it, however that doesnt seem right.

Thanks.
Where/syntax to set the tmpdir?
Below is the syntax I use and when run from local host it puts the files in the
"root" tomcat directory, at the same level as the all the subdirectories. Even
outside the webapp directory. However it is accessible.
When I switch to accessing from a domain with modjk, TC cant find the file. The very same code that calls a servlet to populate a html img tag is blank, but the rest of the page renders correctly.
I also found something claiming that TC configures its own tmp directory per
webapp. Is that from the proper setting of CATALINA_TMPDIR in the server.xml?
with what syntax? tia.
String tempdir = System.getProperty("java.io.tmpdir");
if (! (tempdir.endsWith("/") || tempdir.endsWith("\\"))) {
tempdir = tempdir + System.getProperty("file.separator");
}
File tempFile = null;
try {
tempFile = File.createTempFile("myFile", "." + outputType);
}
catch (IOException ex2) {
}
