tomcat/temp/xx-portlet directory

[Jan Phillip Höft, modifié il y a 15 années.]

Hello everybody,
I'm trying to develop a portlet which shows dynamicaly generates images. Therefor I save the images in "contextPath/images/". But if I hotdeploy my portlet, liferay executes it in "/tomcat/temp/xx-contextPath" directory, where xx is an index.
Because of this, liferay looks for the images in "/tomcat/temp/xx-contextPath/images" instead of "/tomcat/webapps/contextPath/images".

Any suggestions, how to get the xx-path, or where to save the images?

Thx for any help!

The path should be the name of your portlet. For example if your portlet's name is "Sweaty-Balls", it should be located at tomcat/temp/01-Sweaty-Balls. The number before the portlet name may change depending on how many times you deployed. Like 01,02,03....,08 and so on...

Also once you shutdown the server, everything in temp will be transferred to tomcat/webapps folder.

Hi Jan Phillip Höft ,

how to get the xx-path (tomacat/temp/xx-path)?


Solution: getServletContext().getRealPath("/") use this

It give path for ex: IN Windows C:\...\tomcat\temp\01-image\
IN Linux /opt/../tomcat/temp/01-image/


Thanks

Hi All,

Rajeeva, solution which you are referring is solving the issue. "Secret Developer" thread says after shutdown server, temp folder will be moved to webapps. So My point of view is that i didnt shutdown the server, If i redeploy the portlet with updated image, will it take that new image from webapps, or still will load the old image from temp?

In general, context path means it should refer from webapps/context only,,, Why its refereing temp folder which outside webapps.

Thanks in advance

If you didnt shutdown the server/restart the server, It will refer to webapps if you redeploy the portlet, and note that, once you shutdown the server, everything in temp will be transferred to tomcat/webapps folder.

how come you are sure that its refering temp folder which is outside webapps??..
Can you still be clear??..

Hi,

When i deploy my portlet, Its coming under webapps and temp both folder.

I have one xml file under my portlet/chart-files/abc.xml. I want to read this xml file and generate as chart in my portlet.

When i am uploading new xml file from the same portlet. its updating under webapps/myportlet/chart-files/abc.xml successfully.
But after i upload , when i read for display chart still its taking from temp/ not from webapps.

You are not supposed to be modifying any files in the webapps folder when running. It is meant to be a static resource for the application container. The app container will use the temp folder to cache information it is generating/using on behalf of the running application.

Hello frds,
I'm trying to develop a portlet which upload file in a folder. Therefor I save the file in "FilePorlet/file". But if I hot deploy my portlet,
liferay executes it in "/tomcat/temp/xx-File" directory, where xx is an index.
Because of this, liferay looks for the file in "/tomcat/temp/xx-File/file" instead of "/tomcat/webapps/FilePortlet/file".

Any suggestions, how to get the xx-path, or where to save the file?
