title: Resource not found on classpath
body: <p>I'm on a new branch of a git project on which I've made my own config file called <code>MY_NAME.conf</code> which is located in</p>
  
  <blockquote>
    <p>Users/myname/IdeasProject/projectName/src/main/resources/config.</p>
  </blockquote>
  
  <p>However, I'm having some issues getting my branch to run. So, just to make sure things are smooth I set up a new environment and I've cloned into the master. This is all done at</p>
  
  <blockquote>
    <p>Users/myproject</p>
  </blockquote>
  
  <p>However, now when I try to run the project I get a message</p>
  
  <blockquote>
    <p>java.io.IOException: resource not found on classpath:
    config/MY_NAME.conf</p>
  </blockquote>
  
  <p>Why is it looking for this file at all? And even if it is, why is it not finding <code>MY_NAME.conf</code>?</p>
