Generally, read files from the classpath. So, remove the config.properties form your server project. For any unit tests you can put a config.properties under src/test/resources (will be on the test class path). The add the config.properties to you war project so that it will be added to the webapp's class path. And there you go... Or, you might even want to keep the config.properties outside the war if you want to have different configuration for each environment. Your app server will likely have some folder where you can add config.properties so that it ends up on the class path.
