Failed to load users/passwords/role files

[aleung_ca]

I have upgraded my JBoss from JBoss-2.4.0_Tomcat-3.2.3 to JBoss-2.4.4_Tomcat-4.0.1. I use the users.properties file for FORM based security validation on the WEB application. It is working fine in JBoss 2.4.0, but the following error is produced after it is upgraded to 2.4.4. In 2.4.0 I add the path for the users.properties file into CLASSPATH and jBoss is successfully to locate it. But for 2.4.4 this action looks not working and it keeps on posting the following error when the application is accessed.

Any hints.

Thanks.

Allen.

Try putting them in the conf directory for the config you are running. I don't remember 2.4, but that's where it goes in 3.0.
