Hi,
You need to loopup the exaxt location of the properties file via the
Class.forname structure. That returns the input stream to the file which you
can then load into the contrucor of the properties.
This is the line that does this:
is =
java.lang.Class.forName(net.ikke.etc.properties.ApplicationProperties).get
ResourceAsStream(/ + DEFAULT_PROPSFILE);
Where the classname is the fully qualified name of the class that tries to
locate the properties file.

Subject: Tomcat can't open my bd.properties file
Hi:
I have Tomcat 3.2.2 running over Debian Potato and I'm trying to install
a simple JSP application with database access.
I've got a connection pool that works fine when I run it directly with
java. In the root of my classes directory I have a couple of files, a
log file called ServidorConexiones.log and the properties file
bd.properties.
classes/ServidorConexiones.log
classes/bd.properties.log
classes/com/ishop/sql/ServidorConexiones.class
classes/com/ishop/sql/PoolConexiones.class
The source file for the Connection manager is
sources/com/ishop/sql/ServidorConexiones.java
And reads the bd.properties with these sentences...
public class ServidorConexiones {
/**
* pNombre del fichero de propiedades empleado para la definición
de los
* pools.
*/
static private String properties = bd.properties;
...MORE CODE HERE...
/**
* pConstructor privado que inicializa el servidor y todos sus
pools
* asociados. Definiendo el constructor como privado se garantiza
el
* comportamiento Singleton de la clase. Las demás clases deberán
* acceder a la instacia del servidor a través del método
* codegetInstance/code.
*/
private ServidorConexiones() {
Properties prop = new Properties();
try {
prop.load(new FileInputStream(properties));
} catch (Exception e) {
System.err.println(Error opening + properties + file:
+ e);
return;
}
...CONTINUES...
As I said before, when I run my test applications from de classes
directory directly with java it works fine. Then, for testing with JSP,
I copy the classes directory to:
jakarta-home/webbapps/isHOP/WEB-INF
After restarting Tomcat, my JSP test application fail opening the
bd.properties file:
Error opening bd.properties file: java.io.FileNotFoundException:
bd.properties (No such file or directory)
What should I do to make this file available for Tomcat?
Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thanks,
Quique
