From the documentation for java.lang.ClassLoader:
" The name of a resource is a "/"-separated path name that identifies the resource."
That is, try /resources/storageDirectory.properties.

Okay, this code works if I put the properties file in the WEB-INF\classes directory:

I really would like to put those properties files in a folder; say, WEB-INF\classes\resources directory, is there any way to do it? --- Caroline Jen <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:

The storageDirectory.properties file is in the

directory.
The classpath is
C:\jakarta-tomcat-5.0.27\webapps\AppName\WEB-INF\src\java

Hi, Caroline.
Your code tries to open a file from the
filesystem,
and since the path you specified is invalid from
the
current working directory you get a FileNotFoundException.
Try a
oProp new Properties().load
(getClass().getClassloader().getResourceAsStream(PROPFILE));

(Not
application.properties)
The application.properties file in my web
application works OKay.
I have another file called storageDirectory.properties, which has one line:
outputFile =
C:\\jakarta-tomcat-5.0.27\\webapps\\AppName\\var\\
I set my classpath to
C:\jakarta-tomcat-5.0.27\webapps\AppName\WEB-INF\src\java
One of my class in the
C:\jakarta-tomcat-5.0.27\webapps\AppName\WEB-INF\src\java\org\
OrganizationName\content directory tries to read this storageDirectory.properties file:
final String PROPFILE =
"storageDirectory.properties";
Properties oProp = null;
FileInputStream fis = new FileInputStream(
PROPFILE ); oProp
= new Properties(); oProp.load ( fis );
I put this storageDirectory.properties in the
C:\jakarta-tomcat-5.0.27\webapps\AppName\WEB-INF\src\java
directory.
I then put this storageDirectory.properties in
the
C:\jakarta-tomcat-5.0.27\webapps\AppName\WEB-INF\src\java\resources
directory.
No matter where I put this properties file, I
get
this
runtime error message: java.io.FileNotFoundException: storageDirectory.properties (The system cannot
find the file
specified)
And it points to this statement: FileInputStream fis = new FileInputStream(
PROPFILE );
