Are you trying to access the file directly, like

    FileRead in = new FileReader("MyFile.properties");

If so, try loading it with ServletContext.getResource[AsStream](); or load
it as a java.util.ResourceBundle.

Subject: Property file location in tomcat? 


Hi all, 
Thanks in advance. 
tomcat version - 3.2.1 
OS : Windows 2000 
I have created a separate project directory (not under webapps) and I have
modified the server.xml in conf directory. 
<Context path="/myproj" 
                 docBase="H:/myproj" 
                 crossContext="true" 
                 debug="0" 
                 reloadable="true" 
                 trusted="false" > 
 </Context> 
I have some servlets and everything seems to work fine except when I access
property file. 
Tomcat looks for the property file under tomcat/bin directory. Why is it not
looking at my project root directory? 
Is there any way to set it?
