Using relative path to atom-server.cfg.xml (Error)

[volodymyrkozubal]

I have a great problem with Atomhopper
atom-hopper\atomhopper\src\main\webapp\WEB-INF\web.xml
and a path to config file of atom server.

I need to change this

<init-param>
      <param-name>config-location</param-name>
      <param-value>file:///etc/atomhopper/atom-server.cfg.xml</param-value>
</init-param>

to

<init-param>
      <param-name>config-location</param-name>
      <param-value>/META-INF/atom-server.cfg.xml</param-value>
</init-param>

So as you can see i should keep this config file in war and use relative path.
So i use a maven-war-plugin and put it inside META-INF directory inside webapp
But i get an error

Thanks.

@volodymyrkozubal Can you try using "classpath:some_path" like this:

<init-param>
      <param-name>config-location</param-name>
      <param-value>classpath:/META-INF/atom-server.cfg.xml</param-value>
</init-param>

Yes thank you very much.
It works.
