[jboss-user] [Installation, Configuration & DEPLOYMENT] - Reading properties file in webapp under JBoss/Tomcat

Hi, I'm trying to read a properties file that is contained in a war file that is deployed under JBoss' Tomcat. The specifics follow: code to read file is: ResourceBundle props = ResourceBundle.getBundle("idmwswrapper.properties", Locale.getDefault(), this.getClass().getClassLoader()); the properties file is currently located in WEB-INF/classes The error message is: ERROR READING PROPERTIES FILE.... Can't find bundle for base name idmwswrapper.properties, locale en_US 2007-08-03 15:09:24,265 INFO [STDOUT] java.util.MissingResourceException: Can't find bundle for base name idmwswrapper.properties, locale en_US 2007-08-03 15:09:24,265 INFO [STDOUT] at java.util.ResourceBundle.throwMissingResourceException(ResourceBundle.java:836) 2007-08-03 15:09:24,265 INFO [STDOUT] at java.util.ResourceBundle.getBundleImpl(ResourceBundle.java:726) 2007-08-03 15:09:24,265 INFO [STDOUT] at java.util.ResourceBundle.getBundle(ResourceBundle.java:699) 20 etc. etc. Where should this file be located relative to the class file that resides in: WEB-INF/classes.com.company.webservices.idm.wrapper.ClassName ? Ideally, I need to place the propertie file OUTSIDE of the classes directory - in config/propetiesfile.properties for instance, but that removes it from the classpath. Any suggestions are greatly appreciated! View the original post : http://www.jboss.com/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&p=4070814#...
