In the web.xml file I need to include init params Like this: <init-param> <param-name> passwordFile </param-name> <param-value> C:\SANDRA\BC Transit\IDCardProject\Passwords\passwords.properties </param-value> </init-param>
What I have done here, however, is wrong. Story of my life... I am creating a passwordFile using a FileOutputStream to the address above like this: String passwordFile = "C:\\SANDRA\\BC Transit\\IDCardProject\\Passwords\\passwords.properties"; FileOutputStream out = new FileOutputStream(passwordFile); However when I call it like this: passwordFile = config.getInitParameter("passwordFile"); passwords = new Properties(); passwords.load(new FileInputStream(passwordFile)); The above web.xml does not do the trick. I believe my param-name is correct, but what should the value be?
