Reinhard, thanks for replying to both of these.
I'd like to deploy only Tomcat - its for a standalone app. Whilst I
can serve from outside of the webapps directory, the content is still
part of the webapp.
We are uploading content by FTP and fetching with HTTPClient. If I
write the content into my webapp directory it will be overwritten
when the app is upgraded. But if I write the content into anywhere
else the DefaultServlet won't serve it. (It won't surprise you to
learn that my DefaultServlet bug report is connected:-)
Hence my interest in a version of DefaultServlet which I can point at
another root in the filesystem.

Hi again,
this sounds like you should use apache for that.
Are you using a specific download manager on the client side?
Note you can always configure tomcat to serve content outside of
webapps. Just
use context.xml-Configuration:

Hi
I need to serve content from directories other than webapps, but need
to support resumable downloads (and hence serve ETag response headers
and correctly respond to Range and If-Range request headers).
I've cast high and low for some code which fits the bill, but can
find nothing. Does anyone know of a nice file servlet implementation?
Thanks in anticipation.
