Thanks again for this Peter. You hit the problem right smack on the
forehead. I wonder why com.nary.io.FileUtils.getRealpath("/") is
resulting in a "WEB-INF" directory? It can't be the same method that's
used in other places to resolve the BD lib path, or there'd be more
errors then just this one.
Warm regards,
