IntelliJ IDEA File FileNotFoundException, directory and file exists?

So this same project runs fine in Eclipse. I'm trying to run it using IntelliJ IDEA, and getting this error:

java.io.FileNotFoundException: config\server.ini (The system cannot find the path specified)

The config directory and the server.ini file are both definantly there. Is there something Im missing? I know IntelliJ comes with the Ant build system, do I need to write some kind of build file to include the /config directory when building?

If not, what might be causing this?

If you are sure your file actually exists, this is most probably caused by the relative path given (config/server.ini instead of e.g. /home/foobar/config/server.ini). I assume IntelliJ IDEA is running your project under a different working directory than Eclipse. Check that in your run configurations.
