How to access file in EJB

[Sandeep Ghosh]

Hi Friends,
I am storing in <env-entry> pathname where crt and pvt files are located.I am writing this in ejb-jar.xml.
<env-entry>
<env-entry-name>myCertFile</env-entry-name>
<env-entry-value>http://localhost:8080/WebFolder/abc.crt</env-entry-value>
<env-entry-type>java.lang.String</env-entry-type>
</env-entry>
my abc.crt is in root directory of the web. When my accessing it is throwing fileNotFoundException.
Plz tell me where I am going wrong .
Thanks in adv.

You can put the file in ejb-jar file and access the fie.

How are trying to accessing the file?

Are you using URL ?

I am trying to access using InputStream class.
Thanks

Ok, now could you post the piece of your code where you get that InputStream from? Are you saying new FileInputStream("foobar.txt"), getResourceAsStream("foobar.txt") or what?

[Sandeep Ghosh]

I am using a third party api where I have to mention path of the file and they are using FileInputStream(). It is throwing FileNotFound exception when I passing the URL but when I am passing the complete path name C:\.... it is working.

Ok. Then you need to either read the manual (if there is one) and experiment. Take a guess at where the current directory is (although I think you can read this as a system property somehow) and construct a relative path accordingly; and repeating until you don't get the exception.
