The argument you pass to getRealPath() should be relative to the *context*, not to the *server*. The way to get the answer you want is like this: String relative = request.getServletPath(); if (request.getPathInfo() != null) relative += request.getPathInfo(); String realPath = getServletContext().getRealPath(relative); or run your application as the ROOT web-app, in which case context-relative and server-relative paths are the same.
