Missing resource file after deployed to App Engine- works fine in local

[Gift]

Hi,

I am developing code in Eclipse using GWT.

I saved my resource files under the root of war directory, my code
works fine when I am in my eclipse and my code can read the file I
stored.

However, after I uploaded the code to app engine, it looks like the
app engine is been missing the resource.

I tried to save my files under war/WEB-INFO,
but sill no good in App engine side.


The code I used is:

ServletContext servletContext.....

resourceFilePath = "/testfile";

Properties prop = new Properties();
InputStream propStream =
servletContext.getResourceAsStream(resourceFilePath);
prop.load(propStream);

jobSourceFileName = prop.getProperty("JobSourceInformationFile");
.............

The exception at app engine side was:

javax.servlet.ServletContext log: Exception while dispatching incoming
RPC call
com.google.gwt.user.server.rpc.UnexpectedException: Service method
'public abstract java.lang.String
asu.client.GreetingService.greetServer(java.lang.String) throws

I might have not explained this in detail.

So my problem is the program work fine in my eclipse however, after I
deploy it to App engine, it stopped working.

Thanks,

[Gift]

I tried the following code

String jobDataFileResourceName = servletContext.getRealPath("")
+ "/WEB-INF" + "/jobs_" + info.getName() + ".txt";

InputStream stream =new FileInputStream(jobDataFileResourceName);

but I am receiving AccessControlException right now.

Sorry for taking your time. I solved my problem.

My problem was because my file name was wrong. By accident, I
capitalized one of my resource file. It works fine in my local windows
machine, however, in app engine, they treat it differently.

cheers,
