Hi Laurie. Actually, I am not using any method to determine the path of the file. Should I be doing that? In general, where should one place files used for I/O within the WAR structure? Thanks for your help.

I am trying to read from a file using a utility class that I invoke from an action. However, my application is unable to find the file and a java.io.FileNotFoundException is thrown. I have tried placing the file in /WEB-INF/classes as well as the root directory of the application however the error is still thrown. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you.

It's hard to help without seeing the code, but you are probably specifying an incorrect path to the file. Are you using getRealPath() [1] to figure out the real file location?
