Hello,

I have a src folder “src/main/properties” that contains a log4j.properties file. When I deploy/redeploy to server, this file is not being picked up and added to WEB-INF/classes as I’d expect. Can you tell me what I’m doing wrong?

ME 6.5, Linux, JDK1.6, tomcat 6.0.16.

Thanks!

The file needs to go iin the root of your /src directory, it will be built (copied) into the /classes dir for you.

Thanks, but there’s not a way for multiple src folders to be combined in the deployment? I’d like to adhere to maven conventions.

John,
Actually if you switch to your Navigator View, double check that the WEB-INF/classes dir doesn’t already contain the log4j.properties file… all source folders are “built” into the WEB-INF/classes dir, which is then deployed by MyEclipse. If the output dir for the properties source dir is something other than the default, then that is the problem.

You want to keep it in a many-to-one association (many source dirs, if you want, to one output dir, that MyEclipse deploys)
