Hey guys, I'm having a bit of an issue here. Whenever I Run As>Application, I get the following message:
Quote:

Config File was not found.
Please place it in the current directory.

I'm using Eclipse Kepler for Java development with 32-bit JDK/JRE and 32-bit Windows XP.

However, if I write a simple "Hello World" app it works flawlessly. "Config File" is a bit vague, so it's difficult for me to determine if it's referring to "*.config" or a specific "x.config" file.

If anyone can help me figure out what's going on here, I'd appreciate it. Thanks.

I guess I would ask whether this message was coming from the application
you're trying to run (Hello World would not have occasion to ask for a
configuration file, right?) or from Eclipse. I don't recognize the
message or even the circumstance as being something Eclipse would ask for.

Can you tell us more?
