I have created a patch for this issue - both for the master branch and for 6.1.x branch.
Can't load pom.properties when jar not on default drive on
Windows
------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: DROOLS-354
URL:
https://issues.jboss.org/browse/DROOLS-354
Project: Drools
Issue Type: Bug
Affects Versions: 6.0.0.Final
Environment: Windows
Reporter: Peter Cooper
Assignee: Mark Proctor
I'm using Apache Tomcat to run my web application, which includes Drools 6.0.0.Final
and getting rules files out of the classpath. However, the webapps directory (the appBase
in Tomcat's server.xml) is on a different drive than the main Tomcat installation.
When Drools is trying to get its pom properties (ClasspathKieProject's
getPomProperties method, starting on line 167) it looks like it first strips off the
Windows drive letter. It then tries to find the path, but on the drive of the Windows
current directory (in this case, the drive where Tomcat is installed) instead of the drive
where the file actually is. This means that it can't find the jar file, so I get the
"Unable to load pom.properties" "as jarPath cannot be found" error.
I'm not sure why it's trying to strip off the drive letter, since I think it would
be able to find the file correctly if that weren't the case.
Thank you.
