    Problem with MySQL root directory

    Hi,

    I am using flex for interface, java for intermediate code and mysql for DB. My website contains videos so instead of uploading them on db, i have instead put a path in db and stored videos on machine. the path is '/images' for images and '/video' for videos. Before I was using IIS server and when i used to put my index.html (along with .swf and .js) file and 'images' and 'video' folder in /inetpub/wwwroot folder, it used to work fine. now i am working with tomcat, and i have tried placing 'images' and 'video' folder everywhere but its not working. I am sure that database is connected because there is some info of videos stored directly in database that i get.
    Can anyone help me out?

    Thanking you in anticipation.

    It is a little hard to understand your question and problem, so maybe that is why you haven't had an answer yet.

    As I understand it, you have put the directory locations, meaning the directory paths, for your images and videos in your database. And your images and videos themselves are located in these directories. But what is the problem? Can you read the directory locations from your database, but you cannot get your application (i.e. a web browser) to open the image and video files? Are you using a client machine that is connecting to your database on another machine? If so, where are the videos and images located, on the client machine or the server?

    Try to present your problem more clearly, and maybe we can help.
