Heroku Unable To Find XML Config File

Question

I uploaded a Spring application to Heroku but the application crashed with the following error:

java.io.FileNotFoundException: class path resource [com/myname/

Answer 1

For future visitors to this question, I overcame the problem by converting my DAO XML config file to the Java Config method, therefore Spring no longer required that XML file. This didn't directly solve the issue of being unable to find the XML file, but the added benefit is that I am now using the more modern and less verbose Java Config method.
