Cordova + Angularjs - Why does $resource (or $http) called from inside a callback give a 404?

I dumped a perfectly functional angularjs web app into cordova and compiled for ios. In testing for ios, if I try to access a local file from inside a callback response (from also accessing a local file for which I get a perfectly respectable 200) I get a 404. I changed it so both the initial request and the request from the callback are the same file. Still same error. If I change it to a remote url, it works fine. Code below: 

function promiseFunc1() {
  var wait = $q.defer();
  $http.get('config/resources.json').success(function (data, status, headers, config) {
    wait.resolve(data);
  });
  return wait.promise; 
}

function promiseFunc2() {
  var wait = $q.defer();
  $http.get('config/resources.json').success(function (data, status, headers, config) {
    wait.resolve(data);
  });
  return wait.promise; 
}

promiseFunc1()
 .then(function (result) {
   return promiseFunc2()
 })
 .done()

Can someone point me in the right direction?

I think this is security in navigator (CORS) to access a file.

so you need to use API phonegap in the link :

If your config folder is outside www then use 

$http.get('../config/resources.json')
