Need to store file out of tmp directory in JBOSS server

[sarvan kumar]

Hi All,
we are using JBOSS Application sever for deploying our web application.
The EJBEAR and WEBEAR files are deployed in the location C:\jboss-4.0.0\server\default\deploy.
The corresponding war file and its contents are extracted in the location
C:\jboss-4.0.0\server\default\tmp\deploy\tmp45694QUOTEWEBEAR.ear-contents\QUOTEWEB-exp.war\PDF\sample1.pdf
using the ServletContext base url.
now i have a specific piece of work, that i have to change the location of the Pdf file outside of the tmp directory.
like (C:\jboss-4.0.0\server\default\PDF\quote1.pdf)
Waiting for your valuable suggestion to move forward.

Regards,
Saravanan

So you are packaging a pdf in a .war and want it to be available at a fixed location? Try exploded deployment. That way, the archive will not be extracted to tmp folder and instead it will be available at a fixed location within your application.
