Linking an outside folder for JSP's in Windows
Hello Everyone
I want to have a folder outside of the webapps/myproject that contains JSP's
and I want to link that folder the webapps/myproject folder in Window's.
Here's what I've tried: Inside webapps/myproject I created a Window's shortcut
to the folder C:\test and named the shortcut test. Then I created a simple
file called C:\test\hello.jsp. I started up tomcat and tried this url:
http://localhost/myproject/test/hello.jsp
The error came back saying that the file didn't exist. So I tried this url:
http://localhost/myproject/test/
to get a directory listing. That didn't work either. All the other jsp's in
http://localhost/myproject/ work though. Does anyone know how to acomplish
this?
Thanks a lot,
Tim

Thanks for the very good idea. What can I do if I want both folders to run in
the same context? Can I set up some kind of mapping in server.xml to
accomplish this?
Thanks,
Tim

windows shortcut is just a microsoft technology (as much as i know) that is
not usable in tomcat...
i can suggest using a context with absolute mapping to your c:\test\ -
meaning add a context to your server.xml file with docBase="C:/test"
cheers
