Help please (sorry for my bad english)
The issue could also be caused by any folder above the desired one having too strict access privileges. The accout under which your Tomcat is running must have effective 'x' permission for each directory level above the desired one (including the root directory, '/'). Also, it may be that the path listed above is not the physical one, but consists symbolic links making shortcuts across some of the physical directory levels. You'll need to check for that and trace the actual physical directories on the path. So, initially it looks that you'll need to check access permissions for directories / /home /home/www /home/www/virtual ... /home/www/virtual/test/images/htdocs/flyers But now, if f.ex. /home happens to be a symbolic link to /vol1/homes/w/www, you actually need to check permissions for / /vol1 /vol1/homes /vol1/homes/w /vol1/homes/w/www /vol1/homes/w/www/virtual ... /vol1/homes/w/www/virtual/test/images/htdocs/flyers (and of course, if any of the "directories" in this path happen to be symbolic links, you'll need to "unroll" them to the physical directory path just as well) -- ..Juha --------------------------------------------------------------------- To start a new topic, e-mail: users@tomcat.apache.org To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
