I have an application whose class files are in
/usr/local/tomcat/webapps/ROOT/WEB-INF/classes
It uses the following line to write a file called java.php:
FileOutputStream fout = new FileOutputStream
("/usr/local/tomcat/webapps/ROOT/java.php", true);
It does this perfectly.
What I want is to write this file to a directory outside the tomcat
directory. e.g. to /var/www/newdir
In Tomcat under Windows I have no problem doing this. Tomcat is installed in
F: and I can write to my apache directory c:\Apache2\htdocs by putting this
file path in the above code line.
But Tomcat under Linux does not allow me to do this, apparently for security
reasons. But security does not really matter for me because this application
won't be open. How do I read and write files outside the home directory?
