Description

RangerConfiguration first checks, if the necessary xml files are on the classpath, and after it tries to convert it to a file path, check that file is on the filesystem, and convert that path to back to URL. If the configurations are inside a jar, then this will fail very badly (the resource url will be something file://config.jar!/ranger-services.xml )

If the conversion is removed, it would work pretty nicely
