the war task should include any/all files (include myconfig.xml) to be referenced then any deploy tasks should un-war or decompress the files (including myconfig.xml) to the deployment folder which would be either WEB-INF/lib or WEB-INF/classes

My application structure is as follows The server I am using is jboss-3.0.8_tomcat-4.1.24. And I wrote code to access file in my local machine as below in lets say Converter.java. MessageContext ctx = MessageContext.getCurrentMessageContext(); AxisService asrv = ctx.getAxisService(); fin = (FileInputStream) asrv.getClassLoader().getResourceAsStream(xml) Where xml being the name of the file lets say (myconfig.xml) And I placed this file in axis2/WEB-INF/classes. And put converter.java in a jar file in C:\jboss-3.0.8_tomcat-4.1.24\tomcat-4.1.x\shared\lib. And I deployed my services in axis2.war and placed axis2.war in C:\jboss-3.0.8_tomcat-4.1.24\server\default\deploy\webapps. This solution worked fine in local environment. But when I moved the solution to Linux server it failed becuase of NullPointerException in AxisService asrv = ctx.getAxisService(); The structure of server is different being Converter.class in shared/lib directory of /home/jboss-3.0.8_tomcat-4.1.24/tomcat-4.1.x/shared/lib. but axis2 is deployed as exploded form under /home/jboss-3.0.8_tomcat-4.1.24/tomcat-4.1.x/webapps/mydomain/ and this erro is happening whenI tried to access my config file that is in /home/jboss-3.0.8_tomcat-4.1.24/tomcat-4.1.x/webapps/mydomain/axis2/WEB-INF/clasess/myconfig.xml from my service class (let say MyService.class) in AAR that /home/wpape/jboss-3.0.8_tomcat-4.1.24/tomcat-4.1.x/webapps/commence/erpsync/axis2/WEB-INF/services/myAAR.aar. This error is happening when MyService.classs after accessing Converter.class in shared/lib try to get the messageContext. I think I did somethign terrible wrong here. Could anyone tell me the best way to access this myconfig.xml in /home/jboss-3.0.8_tomcat-4.1.24/tomcat-4.1.x/webapps/mydomain/axis2/WEB-INF/clasess/ directory from a class that is placed in a jar in shared/lib that is being called by my service class in AAR.
