[jboss-user] [Installation, Configuration & DEPLOYMENT] - Annoyance with EARs and .properties file

So I have a little annoyance here. Within my EAR I have a .properties file that multiple modules read from through an XML file by setting values to classpath:some.properties. It all works fine and dandy if I place the .properties file in the base of the EAR like so: myApp.ear | | | |--- some.properties | | | |--- META-INF | | | | | |--- (some files) | | | |--- APP-INF | | | | | |--- lib | | | | | | | |--- (various .jar files) | However, I really want it to be read from APP-INF/classes instead, like so: myApp.ear | | | |--- META-INF | | | | | |--- (some files) | | | |--- APP-INF | | | | | |--- lib | | | | | | | |--- (various .jar files) | | | | | |--- classes | | | | | | | |--- some.properties I have tried adding a class path entry to the MANIFEST.MF file with no success. I have tried playing around in application.xml and jboss-app.xml as well. I always get the error: java.io.FileNotFoundException: class path resource [some.properties] cannot be opened because it does not exist I am looking for any tips or advice. Thanks!
