Wasn't one of the 3.2.2 changes that you could not request URLs from the
WEB-INF directory? Possibly its just that and not really all relative URLs.

Subject: [BUG T322] Bug in getServletContext().getResource() for
relative URLs
Bugzilla is down so I am forced to send this to the list:
Relative URLs from a servlet resource do not work (Tomcat 3.2.2).
I have the following code in a Servlet:
URL propURL = getServletContext().getResource(
"/WEB-INF/connection.properties" )
URL configURL = new URL( url, "config.xml" );
The servlet throws a FileNotFoundException on configURL.getInputStream()
some diagnostic info follows:
Could not load configuration file: file:persist.config.xml
propURL: file:F:\tomcat\tomcat-dev\webapps\ore\WEB-INF\connection.properties
configURL: persist.config.xml
Apache Tomcat/4.0-b5 works perfectly, but its using jndi.
Also, if I do the following:
URL configURL = new URL( url, "config.xml" );
configURL = new URL( configURL.toString() );
it works!
