FileNotFoundException for context file

[Sonny hodac]

I tried to load the context file for a test case, using a absolute path:

private ApplicationContext context;
context = new ClassPathXmlApplicationContext("C:/myfolder/springapp-context.xml");

But it didn't work, got this exception:

org.springframework.beans.factory.BeanDefinitionStoreException: IOException parsing XML document from class path resource [C:/myfolder/springapp-context.xml]; nested exception is java.io.FileNotFoundException: class path resource [C:/myfolder/springapp-context.xml] cannot be opened because it does not exist

Can someone give some input of what I'm doing wrong here? Thanks,

[Christophe Verré]

If you're using a full path, use FileSystemXmlApplicationContext instead, because ClassPathXmlApplicationContext will search from your classpath.

context = new FileSystemXmlApplicationContext("file:C:/myfolder/springapp-context.xml");

[Sonny hodac]

thanks. i will try and let you know the result.

[Sonny hodac]

I tried the FileSystemXmlApplicationContext, still got the same error. Please help:

context = new FileSystemXmlApplicationContext("file:C:/myfolder/spring-context.xml");

Is there a file called spring-context.xml in myfolde ? At the DOS prompt, try "DIR C:/myfolder/spring-context.xml".

[Sonny hodac]

Here is the code that load the context:
context = new FileSystemXmlApplicationContext("file:C:\\sbm\\bpm\\Savvion\\BPMStudio\\ApriaSonataDataAdminEJB\\saddAppDev-context.xml");

I do dir at dos prompt for my context file, here the result:
C:\>dir c:\sbm\bpm\Savvion\BPMStudio\ApriaSonataDataAdminEJB\sdaaAppDev-context.
xml
Volume in drive C is CDRIVE
Volume Serial Number is F879-9537

Directory of c:\sbm\bpm\Savvion\BPMStudio\ApriaSonataDataAdminEJB

I ran the Junit test again still got the exception, please help, here the exception:

[Christophe Verré]

Ok, and you don't find anything weird ? Look closely and don't pull your hair out

Your context path : file:C:\\sbm\\bpm\\Savvion\\BPMStudio\\ApriaSonataDataAdminEJB\\saddAppDev-context.xml

The real path : c:\sbm\bpm\Savvion\BPMStudio\ApriaSonataDataAdminEJB\sdaaAppDev-context.xml

[Sonny hodac]

Oh...my bad...after watch the same error for a while everything is blurry abit...thanks so much for pointing it out.
