Hi. I'm new to Turbine and this list.

I'm trying to deploy my Turbine based app on an app server (Iona iPortal).
This means that all files are packed in a WAR file which is in turn packed
in a EAR file and _apparently_ the EAR file is loaded into memory. In other
words things aren't available in a regular file structure. Well, things
grind to a halt early because Turbine can't find it's properties file.

Scanning the archives I see "Turbine 2.x apps are fully WAR compliant. You
just have to make sure your app server unpacks the war file...".

How is Turbine "WAR compliant" if it never encounters WAR files (the app/web
server unpacks them)?

I also read that Turbine only works in a "live" file system. This applies to
2.x and 3.x. Is there not enough demand for Turbine to work with in-memory
deployments? Seems odd...

I hope I can figure out how to get iPortal to deploy a live file system
(anyone know?). Modifying Turbine could also be an option but the fact that
it hasn't been done yet leads me to believe that that would be non-trivial.
I got Velocity working in this scheme using
ServletContext.getResourceAsStream(filename) to load the properties. Maybe I
can do something similar with Turbine....
