Understanding the Soft Link Between Tomcat and PhixFlow
When you want to reference a file saved on the PhixFlow server, you need to use a path that the PhixFlow Webapp can understand. The PhixFlow webapp runs within Tomcat, so only knows about files below /opt/tomcat/webapps/phixflow
...
| Soft link in Tomcat directory | points to → | Soft link in PhixFlow server | points to → | Directory containing files |
|---|---|---|---|---|
/opt/tomcat/webapps/phixflow/datalink |
| /opt/phixflow/data/phixflow/Projects/MyProject/ |
The Path or URL to Use
Within PhixFlow, to refer to a file on the server, start the path with the datalink directory.
Examples:
- file path:
datalink/Project1/Images/file1.png - URL:
url("https:datalink/MyProject/MyImage.png")
