Loading Properties File into SqlMapConfig

[Srinivas Doddi <Sr...@gap.com>]

Hi

We have been using iBatis for the past one year and now we are trying to
re-organize our project structure.  Previously we have our project
structure as below and we were using <properties
resource="../../META-INF/database.properties" />.   Now we have to
externalize our properties file and I am using <properties
url="file:///opt/folder 1/folder 1.1/database.properties" />, but I am
getting a File Not Found Exception.  Am I doing anything wrong here?  I
am using Tomcat 6/JDK 1.6 and RHEL as my OS.

Old Structure:

ROOT
    |
    |
    |----------META-INF
    |                  |----------database.properties
    |
    |
    |---------WEB-INF
    |                 |
    |	          |-------------classes
		               |
			sqlConfiguration.xml




Current Structure:


 Opt
    |-------folder 1
    |           |
    |           |-------folder 1.1
	    |         |----------database.properties
	    |
                |	
                |-------folder 1.2  
		    |
		ROOT
				    |
				    |
				    |----------META-INF
				    |                  
				    |
				    |
				    |---------WEB-INF
				    |                 |
				    |	          |-------------classes
						               |
	
sqlConfiguration.xml
                    
    

Thanks for your help.
