If you are using a Maven as your build tool, you need to include your www directory to the classpath in your pom.xml:

 <build>
    <resources>
        <resource>
            <directory>src/main/resources</directory>
            <directory>src/main/www</directory>
        </resource>
    </resources>
 </build>

The file is in the class path folder then it will work. classpath: filename is not needed. Just give the file name as parameter

You are using what IDE? If you are using IntelliJ , you should set the containing folder of your file as resources
