html link to images in /tmp directory
Because of permission issues, I need to link to images in my web page which are stored in /tmp which of course is located in the root directory but my actual html page is much further down in another directory. I thought the the following code should work, but the image comes up as a broken link: Code:
<img src="/tmp/Energy_and_Power_on_Target-img.png"> |

Code:
<img src="/tmp/Energy_and_Power_on_Target-img.png"> the src has to be accessable from the internet/intranet. /tmp is not. You would have to add an Alias to you httpd.conf(apache) file in the correct place. Code:
Alias /tmp/ "/tmp/" This would link http://www.somedomain.com/tmp to /tmp But Im not sure you really want to do this. Why are you storing images in tmp? this is a "temporary" place to images and could be wiped at anytime, usually on reboot. |

Thanks for the reply. I agree, storing images in tmp doesn't seem like a good idea. The web site is hosted on an oracle server and my DBA suggested I go this route since tmp is readable to me and my local directory for the web site is not (I have to upload the files using Oracle Application Server Control). If I store the images in my local web directory they will indeed show up on the web page, but I need to have access to the files as well to check their time stamps manually (they are generated by an app on the server and I need to look at the files for debugging).
I have a related problem as well. I also need these images to be linked to by other external web sites from other people. Does this external linking require any special configuration on my part? |
