I'm creating a JSP/servlet based web app that uploads a file to a folder on the server.
But when I hit the link to the uploaded file, I'm not able to access it.
E.g. I have uploaded the file at /Projects/MyFiles/file.html
when I try to access that file using localhost:8083/Projects/MyFiles/file.html it doesn't work.

Can anyone please help?

here is my code

@WebServlet("/uploadIDCM")
public class Servlet extends HttpServlet {

    @Override
    protected void doPost(HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse response) throws ServletException, IOException {

        String finalString = "Yet to";
        if(ServletFileUpload.isMultipartContent(request)){
            try {
                List<FileItem> multiparts = new ServletFileUpload(new DiskFileItemFactory()).parseRequest(request);
                for(FileItem item : multiparts){
                    if(!item.isFormField()){
                        String name = new File(item.getName()).getName();
                        item.write( new File("/Projects/MyFiles/" + File.separator + name));
                    }
                }
                finalString = "Success";
                request.setAttribute("msg", "File Uploaded Successfully");
            } catch (Exception ex) {
                finalString = "Exception" + ex.toString();
                request.setAttribute("msg", "File Upload Failed due to " + ex);
            }
        }else{
            finalString = "No file found";
            request.setAttribute("msg","No File found");
        }

    }
}

    We need code and more information to work with. Im not much of a judge, so I never really downvote or close or anything, but a good amount of users here WILL vote to close questions, quite quickly infact, so that the site is "clean" – Mister SirCode Apr 10 '20 at 15:42
  • @Tay, I've updated it with my code. Thanks for suggestion. – Krupal Ghorpade Apr 10 '20 at 15:55
  • Make the physical path on the OS: /Projects/MyFiles/ readable by everyone, for starters. – access_granted Apr 27 '20 at 02:20
