So I'm unable to Open my application. Can anyone tell me the cause and cure for this...

[Patrick Finnegan]

The application is missing a component which could be anything from a java class to a property file. What is currently deployed in the JVM?

[Gunabalan Anantharajan]

ThanX Patrick,
Actually the application consits of many properties files, I placed the properties file in the wrong directory. So the application unable to find the file.
