Well, just checked under tomcat and working fine with WEB-INF\classes\templates\default_en.properties (i use default_en.properties so that I just change what I need and all the rest defaults to default.properties). Did you restarted (I suspect this is read at startup)?

Possible however that under jboss (recently checked on tomcat and the suggested way is guaranteed to work but I believe this depend also on the container ) order of loading is different.

OK, I put the changed default.properties file pretty much everywhere in the war directory and nothing worked. Am I missing something?

I tried:
WEB-INF/default.properties
WEB-INF/templates/default.properties
WEB-INF/classes/default.properties
WEB-INF/classes/templates/default.properties
WEB-INF/lib/default.properties
WEB-INF/lib/templates/default.properties
<war>/templates/default.properties

I'm using 2.8.1 under JBoss 4.2 and java 1.5.

Thanks,
Lou

Re: change default.properties in jar






Surely :-) but under classes/templates/default.properties (at least with 2.8.x)

isn't easier to put the default.properties in WEB-INF/classes ?

(at least for Tomcat that is searched first before WEB-INF/lib/*.jar)

Yeah, you just need to make sure the resource is found first. For example,
you could package the default.properties into aaa_myproperties.jar,
and that would be found first in the classpath.

If I want to change a piece of text in the default.properties file in the
JSPWiki.jar, how would I go about doing that? Can I override it somehow,
or should I go the unjar-change-jar route?

Thanks,
