java.io.FileNotFoundException: class path resource cannot be opened because it does not exist

Question

I am trying to set the configuration location for my Project but I keep getting the following error:

java.io.FileNotFoundException: class path resourc

Answer 1

What you put directly under src/main/java is in the default package, at the root of the classpath. It's the same for resources put under src/main/resources: they end up at the root of the classpath.

So the path of the resource is app-context.xml, not main/resources/app-context.xml.
