Hi,

I have a web application which I succesfully deployed to Tomcat 4.1, with MyEclipse deploy tool. I use the expanded option.

My login page is in myproj/web/jsp/login/login.jsp

and refers to a css and images in myproj/web/images/login/myImage.gif

I use a url in my login.jsp whith url:

<img src=”../../images/login/A0025.gif”>

thus relative to the position of the login page.

This works perfectly in Tomcat. I tried to deploy the same app to JBoss 4.0 which works but doesn’t show images or css becouse of bad url, as it looks for :

http://myserver:8080/images/login/myImage.gif

instead of

http://myserver:8080/myproj/images/login/myImage.gif

Web context root is set to /myproj

web root folder is /web

Any hint?

thanks

Francesco

Francesco,
When you deploy to JBoss and then load up the URL in your browser, do you need to specify the /myproj web context root in the URL? JBoss just uses Tomcat as it’s web/servlet/jsp container internally, so I’m surprised you are getting different behavior.

Hi,

when I access the app in JBoss or Tomcat I specify the context root, thus I type

http://myserver:8080/myproj/jsp/login.jsp

my images fo the login page are located in

myproj/web/images/login

and the img tag points to <img src=”../../images/login/A0025.gif”>

If I manually type the url:

http://myserver:8080/myproj/images/login/A0025.gif

I can see the image is there

Hope you can help,

thanks

Francesco,
Given your dir structure above, your img tag should be just ../images/login/A0025.gif, that backs you up from the “jsp” dir, up one level into the “myproj” dir, and then down into the “images/login” dir.

Sorry,

http://myserver:8080/myproj/jsp/login/login.jsp

is my actual path for the login page and NOT

http://myserver:8080/myproj/jsp/login/login.jsp

which I mistyped…

I see, very strange, and ../../ is resolving to the root of your app server instead of the /myproj dir?

[frantuma]

yes, that’s exactly the problem..

Francesco,
This is a JBoss issue and unfortunately I don’t have any more suggestions for you at this time. If you change the double ../../ to just ../, does it work on JBoss and break on Tomcat?

You could try asking on the JBoss forums why.
