symbolic link under Linux
Hello folks, i´m having some problems with Tomcat-4.1.18 to
understand symbolic link in URLs. For example, i´ve just created a symbolic
link $TOMCAT_HOME/webapps/myweb-app/tda to a directory /tda. Inside /tda
there is a file named blah.html and mywebapp-app is my root application, so
if i try to call http://127.0.0.1/tda/blah.html tomcat shows me:
HTTP Status 404 - /TDA/
type Status report
message /TDA/
description The requested resource (/TDA/) is not available.
Apache Tomcat/4.1.18

FAQ. Check the release notes, search the archives. Symlinks have been
disabled since .12 for security reasons.
You'll need a Resources element sets the allowLinking flag to true. I
don't use these, so I can't give you more information, but it comes up
frequently so it should be easy to find.
