Hello Tim, thanks for the answer. No, its not that simple sadly. I have reproduced the exception for you and will append it at the end of this message. The Class '*jetty.*DefaultServlet.class' is not running within tomcat!
I have looked into the code of that class to see if i can make it run, but the DefaultServlet depends on jetty in a lot of ways, of course. I don't think jettys DefaultServlet will run under tomcat or other servers (Websphere, Glassfish and so on)! So in my opinion: If you want people to use BlobMessages and out-of-band transport, AMQ should provide a generic fileserver webapp, or some differnt fileserver webapps for most popular webservers! I have switched to jms.ByteMessages and zipped streams successfully. I posted here to help make AMQ better. Using it since a few month and i am still enthusiastic. The jetty-specific fileserer is the first negative impression only.
