can I get a directory listing in tomcat
Hello,
I'm trying to get a directory listing as in the
example below, but an exception is thrown saying the
tomcat user does not have access to the /tmp
directory. Is the tomcat itself not allowing access to
the servers directory structure (i.e. the permissions
on /tmp are completely open i.e. 777)?? I'm using
tomcat 4 with jdk 1.4.0
Thanks,
Ryan
String dir = "/tmp/";
File fDir=new File(dir); // the directory
//tomcat cannot get past this line in the code.
String[] fileList=fDir.list(); // fetch the list

Phillip,
Thanks for the reply, after some searching and
debugging. I found you can add the following to the
$CATALINA_HOME/conf/catalina.policy file (grant
section) to add read permissions to everything .
permission java.io.FilePermission "<<ALL FILES>>",
"read";
Thanks again,
Ryan

I don't know how it works these days, but I faced this back in like 3.2.2:
Tomcat would not allow any access to the filesystem outside of the tomcat
tree. Check out the SECURITY_MANAGER_HOWTO, I think, as a place to start.
