Hi, well I am trying to organise my webapp and trying to move all config files to a config subfolder.

I succeeded.... almost - ehcache seems to ignore classpath and is looking just in rootDir of my webapp (WEB-INF/classes). I tried already changing setclasspath.bat of tomcat4 but it woun't work!

I see no possibility to do it programatically too without writing code for ehcache management which I don't need because Hibernate does this much better as I would and renders all cache management totally transparent to me.

So the question is, is there any painless posibility to configure ehcache(hibernate) to use ehcache.xml located not under WEB-INF/classes ?

kind regards

I think you could workaround by writing your own CacheProvider which does CacheManager.create(urlToYourFile) once at the beginning. There is no config setting for it though.
