ok here is some more info. In my subclass of CatalogConfiguratorPlugIn, I logged any calls to setPath or setResource. So when the server starts the values are never set b/c the methods are never called. When I harcode the value, I get an error message that the catalog "struts" cannot be found. This seems to me that despite hardcoding the file path, it still is not found.
Is anything at all being logged by your subclass of the plugin? Did you remember to call super.init(...) in your subclass? ;-)
Are you using any other plugins? Are you using set-property anywhere else? Which version of Struts are you using?
This is exceedingly strange...

If the "path" property is set, then the file is sought in the servlet context. It sounds as though you've tried this, but thought I'd give you an example anyway.
if the "resource" property is set, then the file is sought on the classpath, and if it's in the root of a JAR or WEB-INF/classes, I'd think this would work:

Technically, "resource" is evaluated first.
Is it possible to catch the exception and call ex.getRootCause() ? Perhaps you could write a very simple subclass of CatalogConfiguratorPlugIn which just catches the exception and inspects the root cause? Maybe it's a parsing error or something instead of a file-not-found problem?
