[2.3.0-scala] activator and config file location

[CB]

in play 2.2.x i could run:

play -Dconfig.resource=local.conf -Dlogger.file=conf/local-logger.xml

where local.conf and local-logger.xml  where custom files located in conf folder side by side with application.conf

in play 2.3.0 it is not working for me. i am trying

activator -Dconfig.resource=local.conf -Dlogger.file=conf/local-logger.xml

which results in the following stacktrace:

com.typesafe.config.ConfigException$IO: local.conf: java.io.IOException: resource not found on classpath: local.conf

at com.typesafe.config.impl.Parseable.parseValue(Parseable.java:183)

at com.typesafe.config.impl.Parseable.parseValue(Parseable.java:170)

at com.typesafe.config.impl.Parseable.parse(Parseable.java:227)

at com.typesafe.config.ConfigFactory.parseResources(ConfigFactory.java:716)

Any clue why this is not working anymore?

[CB]

guys - this is really urgent. can someone testify if custom conf files are working in new activator using command line arguments?

if yes - why the below doesn't work for me? 

[Havoc Pennington]

given that exception, the activator part is working fine; config.file is set and passed through. What's wrong is that local.conf isn't on your classpath. Maybe it should be conf/local.conf ? maybe you need to add it to the build somewhere? It is hard to diagnose without knowing your setup. But I don't think activator is the problem.  Try with plain sbt to be sure.

thanks guys - using 

 -Dconfig.file=conf/local.conf   solved it.

[Jimmy Royer]

I am migrating to Play 2.3.0 and I have exactly the same problem. It's like the config folder doesn't end up in the classpath when using -Dconfig.resource. Using the -Dconfig.file command-line argument worked though, just like CB.

Setting the -Dconfig.trace=loads did not help me much unfortunately. I'll leave the log with this option enabled after this reply.

[Peter Youssef]

Experiencing the same issue (but while trying to run in in Intellij using a RunConfiguraiton for play).

 -Dconfig.file=conf/local.conf   fixed the problem but resulted in another...

i have in my dev.conf file:

akk.loggers = ["akka.event.slf4j.Slf4jLogger"]

and for some reason this results in another error:

[error] akka.ConfigurationException: Could not start logger due to [akka.ConfigurationException: Logger specified in config can't be loaded [akka.event.slf4j.Slf4jLogger] due to [java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: akka.event.slf4j.Slf4jLogger]]

Any ideas?
