Hi
There is a directory called work (jakarta-tomcat-4.0.1/work) under which a
directory gets created for each context - where the servlets get run.
Excactly how it works from there I'm not sure but you should be able to get
to your file by using absolute addresses. Or perhaps by using a relative
address of the form "../../webapps/yourappname/WEB-INF/classes/filename",
but I'm not too sure.
You could possibly find the location by making the servlet create a file
called something like find.me and then issuing "find / -name find.me".

Hi,
Thanks for the fast reply. What I want is to read a text file
from servlet or jsp page. I don 't want to specify the whole
directory path for the file. I want to just specify the file name
and should be able to read that file. So I believe if I keep in the
current working directory of the Tomcat server, it will work. IS the
WEB root as same as the Current working directory for the Tomcat
Server.
Regards,
Santosh

Do you mean the web root?
If so that is <install path>\jakarta-tomcat-3.2.2\webapps\ROOT
Youcan change this or add additional virtual roots in the \config\server.xml
file using the context tags
