No, I don't have such a WARN message in the log. And based on my property-file name below I did a search for "geofence-byers" in my log and don't find that anywhere.
I've resorted to editing the geofence/WEB-INF/classes/geofence-datasource-ovr.properties file and have found that to be effective even though probably more invasive on my part than might be preferred.

Look at this example: | 15:04:35,431 INFO PropertyOverrideConfigurer:177 - Loading properties | file from URL | [file:/home/etj/catalina_base/geofence_ares/this_file_does_not_exist.p | roperties] | 15:04:35,432 WARN PropertyOverrideConfigurer:198 - Could not load | properties from URL | [file:/home/etj/catalina_base/geofence_ares/this_file_does_not_exist.p | roperties]: | /home/geosol/catalina_base/geofence_ares/this_file_does_not_exist.properties (No such file or directory) Can you check you don't have this WARN in your log?
