Hi

I have checkd the URL ' 
http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-6.0-doc/config/context.html

done the same for our applications, But please check if this can be achieved
?



1) My external folder which has *images* is on folder "e/STATICIMAGES"

2) TOMCAT6018 is installed on folder "D:/TOMCAT5523"

3) The web apps under "XYZAPPS" is as  "D:/TOMCAT5523/webapps/XYZAPPS"
   and accessible via "http://<IP>:<PORT>/XYZAPPS"


Is this possible to map the "STATICIMAGES"  to webapps  to serve in browser as

* http://<IP>:<PORT>/XYZAPPS/STATICIMAGES *


With regardfs
Karthik

Yes, just set up a sub-context. Something like a file called:
$CATALINA_BASE/Catalina/localhost/XYZAPPS#images.xml

with content:
<Context docBase="/root/images" />

So does Tomcat ;)

See http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-6.0-doc/config/context.html for details.
