>                 Key: CONFIGURATION-391
>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CONFIGURATION-391
>             Project: Commons Configuration
>          Issue Type: Bug
>    Affects Versions: 1.5
>         Environment: - WebSphere AS 6.1with J2EE securit enabled
> - AIX
>            Reporter: Stéphane Van Espen
>             Fix For: 2.x
>
>
> We are using Commons Configuration as follows: 
> {code}
> final PropertiesConfiguration config = new PropertiesConfiguration("velocity.properties");
> {code}
> _Noteworthy points_:
> - properties files  are embedded in JARs
> - Application is deployed in WAS 6.1, where J2EE security is activated (was.policy)
> *Problem is the following*:
> Two entries are necessary in _was.policy_ in order to make the application work.
> Example:
> {code}
> permission java.io.FilePermission "velocity.properties","read";
> permission java.io.FilePermission "/home/wasadmin/velocity.properties","read";
> {code}
> The first entry is valid.
> The second entry (with "/*home*/*wasadmin*/...") is wrong but necesarry in order to make WebSphere happy.
> We would like to remove this second entry (useless and less secure) from our was.policy.
> What could be the cause of this issue ?
> Thank you,
