Description

If an attempt is made to use the JCS.setConfigFilename() method to set the location of the cache.ccf file, this results in the vague error: "Failed to load properties for name".

Looking in the source, the config file is loaded relative to the class org/apache/jcs/engine/control/CompositeCacheManager.java, though no explanation is given for why this object was chosen for the config file to be relative to, nor do the javadocs for setConfigFilename() offer any explanation as to the real config file behaviour.
