Hi,

I'm quite new to S4 and I need help to make commons-configuration work and,
at the same time, to understand how the classpath works in S4.
I'm using an application.properties config file that holds DB connection
details and other stuff, but when the application is deployed in  a node it
can't find that file.

src/
  main/
     java/
        com/
              ...
     resources/
         application.properties
         logback.xml

when I build the s4r file, the application.properties file is located both
in myapp.jar and at root level of the myapp.s4r:

s4:~/apps/cepEngine/build/libs> unzip -l myapp.s4r
Archive:  myapp.s4r
  Length     Date   Time    Name
 --------    ----   ----    ----
        0  04-24-13 12:35   META-INF/
      297  04-24-13 12:35   META-INF/MANIFEST.MF
      840  04-24-13 12:35   logback.xml
      180  04-24-13 12:35   application.properties
        0  04-24-13 12:06   app/
    80847  04-24-13 12:08   app/cepEngine.jar
        0  04-24-13 12:35   lib/
   246709  04-24-13 12:35   lib/logback-classic-1.0.0.jar
   327911  04-24-13 12:35   [....]

 s4:~/apps/cepEngine/build/libs> jar tvfapp/cepEngine.jar
     0 Wed Apr 24 12:08:56 CEST 2013 META-INF/
   297 Wed Apr 24 12:08:56 CEST 2013 META-INF/MANIFEST.MF
     0 Wed Apr 24 12:06:44 CEST 2013 com/

   .........................................
   840 Wed Apr 24 12:06:44 CEST 2013 logback.xml
   180 Wed Apr 24 12:06:44 CEST 2013 application.properties

In a first attempt, application.properties was only included within the
cepEngine.jar. Later, I copied the file to the root of the myapp.s4r, but
still when I deploy the application in a node I always get this error on
the console:

12:43:50.773 [ZkClient-EventThread-13-localhost:2181] ERROR
c.e.d.cep.utils.Configuration - Error reading application.properties
org.apache.commons.configuration.ConfigurationException: Cannot locate
configuration source application.properties
        at
org.apache.commons.configuration.AbstractFileConfiguration.load(AbstractFileConfiguration.java:217)
~[commons-configuration-1.6.jar:1.6]


How should I solve this?


Thanks
