Just a follow-up. I found that from where I launch tomcat is where it
wants to load templates from. It seems clear to me my loader.path is not
being setup correctly. For now until I have a better solution I'll just
have to launch tomcat from my webapp root and put my templates there.. Still
I'd love to have a proper solution.
thanks
Michael
