JBoss6 serve external file static content docBase vhost

There are no more "virtual directories" in JBoss 6. Apparently this went out with JBoss 5. The only availables options or solutions I've found are :

  • Way 1 : using 2 war, one for your project, one other to publish static files (under another
  • Way 2 : symlink (to a simple file system or on a war folder with inside a blank /WEB-INF)

Using ExternalDirectories doesn't work with JBoss 6

<Host name="localhost" ...>
        <!-- ADD static images DIRECTORY -->
        <Context path="/images" 
                docBase="/home/myuser/images"
                reloadable="true">
        </Context>
        <!-- The rest of your Host entity -->
</Host>

This Context deployement result :
