Hmm, your samba mount is in 

/home/josgreen/tools/jakarto-tomcat-5.0.19/webapps/associate/media

but the file you are looking for is in 

/media/associate/9782/facial/9782_f.jpg

so that cannot work at all.

Either mount your samba share like this

% mount -t smbfs -o username=mediauser,password-med08cis
//132.32.43.11/media /media

or correct the path of your file object

or maybe symlink the directory like this:

% ln
-s /home/josgreen/tools/jakarto-tomcat-5.0.19/webapps/associate/media /media

This is by no means a samba problem :-)

Please update your samba password now, because everybody on this list
knows it now :-)
