---------------------------------------------------------------- BEFORE YOU POST, search the faq at <http://java.apache.org/faq/> WHEN YOU POST, include all relevant version numbers, log files, and configuration files. Don't make us guess your problem!!! ---------------------------------------------------------------- Hi, Since Jserv is started by apache, ur jvm's user.dir is apache root. If you want to place ur .properties file in servlet directory, the only thing u need to pass to ur servlet might be the location of the properties file. That is, .properties file - in ur servlet directory zone.properties - for this servlet , the init parameter would be path to the .properties file Then in ur servlet's init method, read this init property and u can read the properties file in ur servlet directory. I hope this is what u r looking for and its clear, if not i'll explain once again.
