Hi Roger, The argument to batch() is a file path or a resource path; it's not a URL. If the jar is on the CLASSPATH (i.e., is accessible to the context class loader, the application loader, or the bootstrap loader) then just batch("jess/" + filename) should find it; Jess itself uses getResource() to look for files not found in the filesystem.
