CakePHP and paths

Classified in: CakePHP, Programmingpaomic at 3:31 pm

I had a problem related to CakePHP and url. I found some articles, such as this or this, but I still can’t find a solution. I try to access a file in the app/webroot directory, but using www.mysite.com/myfile.jpg or www.mysite.com/app/webroot/myfile.jpg don’t work…

Any help or ideas?

Edit: I made a few mistakes, so I was using the wrong path, with the correct path it works fine.

PS: the images are placed in the main webroot directory, but they are accessed using website.com/app/image.ext
