Getting Real Path

Hi..Am developing a website using jsp in tomcat. There is a page through which I can upload images to the server. Its working in my local server. I am using the following code to get the real path of the folder where I want to upload the image:

<%@ page language="java" import="java.io.*" %>
<%
String savepath="";
ServletContext sc = getServletConfig().getServletContext();
savepath = sc.getRealPath("/") + "uploads";
out.println(savepath);
%>

I am getting the path as "C:\Program Files\TSW\Tomcat5\webapps\mysite\uploads" where 'uploads' is teh folder where I am saving the images. Its working fine. But when I am using the site in my internet server, I am getting the path as "/home/somename/public_html/mysite/uploads". Is there anyway I can get the physical path to this folder? Pls help. Its very urgent. Thanks in advance.

Is that not the physical path?
Your web server appears to be Unix

What path are you expecting it to go in?

Thanks for the reply. I am not familiar with Unix. It is a unix server but I do not run it. Thanks again.
