Kris Iyer commented on WFLY-4254:
---------------------------------

I am not sure if a patch will be created for this issue. I ended up applying the fix listed in the Git Pull Request ontop of https://github.com/wildfly/wildfly/releases/tag/8.2.0.Final and built from source.

> Symbolic Linking under exploded web-apps to files and/or directories outside the web-app do not work.
> Here is what I tried under an exploded war: 
> <jboss-web xmlns="http://www.jboss.com/xml/ns/javaee"
>            xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
>            xsi:schemaLocation="http://www.jboss.com/xml/ns/javaee http://www.jboss.org/j2ee/schema/jboss-web_8_0.xsd"
>            version="8.0">
>           <symbolic-linking-enabled>true</symbolic-linking-enabled>
> </jboss-web>
> Does not follow links and results in a 404.
> HTTP/?.? 404 Not Found
> Connection: keep-alive
> X-Powered-By: Undertow/1
> Server: WildFly/8
