Gerald,
I ran into this same problem. For some reason when I deployed, Orion
wouldn't copy the principles.xml from my application to the
applications-deployment directory. I copied it manually and Orion stopped
complaining. I hope this helps.

Subject: What is this strange error?
I'm trying to deploy a very simple application, and am getting the error
"Invalid principals config URL: principals.xml". What in the world does
this mean? I've had this problem all the way from 1.3.x up to 1.4.5 and no
one has been able to tell me what it means, or why it happens, or what I
must do to get rid of it. It is not documented anywhere. Can someone,
perhaps those who work on Orion, PLEASE tell me what this means.
The Error:
...
