Hi, I have a Roller 4.01 install up and running on a dev WLS 11g instance. It's all set up with connecting to Oracle db and mail via JNDI resources. The roller-custom.properties is in the WEB-INF/classes dir within the ear. What I'm hoping to do is pull the roller-custom.properties out of the ear and put it in a classpath outside of the war, say in WLS lib directory. Removing this would allow me to have a common ear that can be deployed across different environments (SSO, LDAP, DB, etc).
However, Roller on deployment is not able to load the properties file. I've put multiple copies of the properties file in a few locations to see if one would get picked. Again, everything is fine if it is the roller EAR. I get the following in logs when deploying from WLS console, "Roller Weblogger: No custom properties file found in classpath." I believe this is coming from the WebloggerConfig class. Has anybody tried doing this type of deployment (EAR) on WLS with an external roller-custom.properties? Thanks, Van
