Howdy,
Didn't I give the ClassLoader solution earlier today on another list? ;)
Anyways, as I mentioned there, I don't like classloading resource access because I
don't like to put configuration information on the classpath.
Instead, put config.properties under your /WEB-INF directory. Avoid file-based APIs
as they don't work out of a WAR archive. Use ServletContext's getResource() or
getResourceAsStream() instead:
For log4j property configuration:
PropertyConfigurator.configure(getServletContext().getResource("/WEB-INF/config.properties"));
Or generally to load properties:
InputStream is = getServletContext().getResourceAsStream("/WEB-INF/config.properties");
props.load(is);
