Manually adding file to classpath

I'm trying to test a war that I deployed in Tomcat 7, however it seems its missing a xml configuration:

web.xml

  <servlet>
    <servlet-name>StorageEngine</servlet-name>
    <servlet-class>com.jpeterson.littles3.StorageEngine</servlet-class>
    <init-param>
      <param-name>contextConfigLocation</param-name>
      <param-value>classpath:StorageEngine-servlet.xml</param-value>
    </init-param>
  </servlet>

I have downloaded the StorageEngine-servlet.xml separately, to be able to satisfy this init-param where do I need put the xml file in the \webapps\littleS3-2.3.0\WEB-INF folder, just relative to the web.xml? Or?

No, it belongs in WEB-INF/classes of your WAR file. That is always in the CLASSPATH of a Tomcat app, loaded by the app class loader.

Given the mapping it would need to be placed in the root of your classpath. Try placing it within the root of any source folder
