most file systems cant read spaces in a filename so you should put
in _ where you see spaces
Hmmm, not sure this is the issue, both filesystems can read and write
files with spaces.
should be renamed to
$CATALINA_HOME/webapps/pdfApp/pdf_file_on_filesystem.pdf
I really need to figure out a way to not rename all the files... If I
could I would not allow the spaces of course, but it's already done. :
( So now I need to figure out how to make this work on the new server
as well.
