Hello fellow Ranchers!
I am running a webstart application (on
tomcat webserver), and looking to isolate the 'webserver area' from 'application area', if at all it's possible.
Basically, I want to be able to launch jars from a different directory (application area) to that of webserver.
This is my tomcat area:
host:/apps/tomcat-6.0.10/
This is where my
servlet (which hosts URL to .jnlp) and .jnlp reside:
host:/apps/tomcat-6.0.10/webapps/myapp/servlet.java
host:/apps/tomcat-6.0.10/webapps/myapp/WEB-INF/classes/servlet.class
host:/apps/tomcat-6.0.10/webapps/myapp/my.jnlp
This is my application area:
host:/apps/myapp/jars (has all binaries)
host:/apps/myapp/config (has all configs)
From the 'tomcat area' which has the .jnlp file I want to be able to call
jars and
configs from 'myapp area'.
Any ideas?
I've tried symlinks but no success. Moving the .jnlp to 'myapp area' has other complications.
I've tried looking up on the forum, but doesn't seem like this type of issue was discussed.
Many thanks.
