Re: [thredds] thredds v3.16 and symbolic links to catalogues

Hi Thomas,

strange.. Maybe it is related to the setup of the tomcat server? I recall a flag named "allowLinking" which can be set for tomcat hosts and contexts

Hi Knut and John,

We are upgrading our server to 3.16 as well and we use a symbolic link from content/thredds pointing on a directory somewhere else.
I didn't see any problem (yet ?).

Hi Knut:

Currently you need to keep TDS config catalogs under content/thredds.

I assume these are "config catalogs", not just other catalogs you want to reference from a catref?

By "symbolic link" do you mean you tried to link another directory under content/thredds ?? If so,
im surprissed it wont follow a symbolic link correclty....

Hi,

I tried to update to thredds version 3.16 today, but it seems that symbolic links to catalogues are not allowed in this version? In logs/ catalogErrors.log I get many errors of this type

initCatalog(): Path <catalogs/mersea-ip-class2-arctic.xml> points outside of content path </home/apache-tomcat-5.5.25/content/ thredds/> (skip).

Is there a quick and easy way to allow symbolic links pointing outside of the "content path" ?


Best Regards,
Knut Lisæter
