Hi,
I'm developing a web application that uses the BIRT viewer for report presentation.
I don't have any problems in my local test environment.
Today I tried to deploy it to a production server (Apache Tomcat/6.0.16) and everything is working out instead of the reports.
My web application is in server/subdir/myApplication.
I have no rights to edit files located in server/WEB-INF, but I have full rights in server/subdir (and thus server/subdir/myApplication).
This is the web.xml of server/subdir/WEB-INF which is the exact same as the one in server/subdir/myApplication/WEB-INF. I'm not sure if this is ok!?

I get this error when trying to view a report:
HTTP Status 404 - /subdir/myApplication/preview
type Status report
message /subdir/myApplication/preview
description The requested resource (/subdir/myApplication/preview) is not available.
Apache Tomcat/6.0.16
I hope somebody can give me help with that issue. Don't hesitate to ask questions on details of the directory contents when you think that the problem might be there.
Thanks for your help!
