Share your code, and we can help point out bugs.
Better yet: what does the stack trace indicate is the source of the
error?
: I have been failing to view the images due to always getting a "java.lang.NullPointerException" every time that I try to see the images in my browser.
I recall getRealPath() doesn't work quite well inside packed WAR files,
if that's how you're running.
If you're streaming images, why not place them outside of the webapp?
That lets the images and the webapp vary independently.
