Saving a file under my GWT project's '/war' path - Security Exception

Hello,

I am designing a web application using GWT. I use an OWL ontology,
stored under the 'war/WEB-INF/Ontology' path in my war folder.
I can access this ontology through my UI on the clientside wihtout any
problems.

When a user modifies the details of an ontology entry through my UI
and clicks on 'Save', I want the server side to save the updated
ontologyto the same path ('war/WEB-INF/Ontology').
However, when I try to do this, I get the error below:

I am badly stuck.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks,
berkan
