And how exactly are you reading that file? Using java.io.File? Instead for JavaEE applications, it's better to use the following code: String startupFileName=...// get the file name from ENC InputStream is = this.getClass().getClassLoader().getResourceAsStream(startupFileName); The resource will then be looked within the classpath of the application. So you can either package that myserver.properties within your app or place it in JBOSS_HOME/server/servername/conf folder (which by default is available in classpath). -------------------------------------------------------------- Reply to this message by going to Community [http://community.jboss.org/message/563908#563908] Start a new discussion in Beginner's Corner at Community [http://community.jboss.org/choose-container!input.jspa?contentType=1&...]
