Hello, I'm having trouble taking out the KeyStore or the properties file from the Axis2 war file. As long as they are in the Axis2.war/WEB-INF/classes directory, everything works fine. I'm using JBoss 4.0.5 and would like to put KeyStore or the properties file outside the Axis2.war file. I tried putting it in Jboss/server/default/lib ; Jboss/server/conf and also manually updated the JBoss CLASSPATH in the run.bat file but doesn't work. The properties file (test.properties) in Axis2.war/WEB-INF/classes folder has the following contents. org.apache.ws.security.crypto.provider=org.apache.ws.security.components.crypto.Merlin org.apache.ws.security.components.crypto.Merlin org.apache.ws.security.crypto.merlin.keystore.type=jks org.apache.ws.security.crypto.merlin.keystore.password=password org.apache.ws.security.crypto.merlin.keystore.alias=uattest org.apache.ws.security.crypto.merlin.alias.password=password org.apache.ws.security.crypto.merlin.file=TestKeyStore If I keep both the TestKeyStore and test.properties files in the Axis2.war/WEB-INF/classes folder, it works fine. Can someone please suggest me how to make the properties file or the KeyStore file available to Axis2.war after it is deployed? I'm putting Axis2.war in an ear which contains some jars and 2 other war files. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Sridhar.
