Problem with File Being Written

[Steve Dyke]

The following code works great on my local host server but will not work on the production server. I call the class from a JSF.

public void setFileString(byte[] bytes) {
this.fileString = bytes;

try{
File ecnString = new File(this.fileName);
boolean success = ecnString.createNewFile();
FileOutputStream fos = new FileOutputStream(ecnString);
fos.write(bytes);
fos.close();

And what are the symptoms of its not-workingness?

[Steve Dyke]

The file never gets writen to the location specified when ran on the production server.

What is the value of this.fileName?

[Steve Dyke]

The value is:
\\gvsvr03\drawings\wgen\pre_pdf\sourcefiles\862000\862428-001B1.rtf

And are there any error messages in your logs? That looks to me like a Windows UNC path, and it's possible that the server it refers to isn't configured to allow your production server to write to that directory.
