The system.properties file is already located in the WEB-INF classes directory.
Sorry I am new to this stuff, not sure what other information you need.
%CATALINA_HOME%/common/lib/mvp.jar <- contains ExtProperties.class
%CATALINA_HOME%/webapps/fs/WEB-INF/classes/system.properties
%CATALINA_HOME%/webapps/fs/WEB-INF/classes <- contains all other classes for
"fs" app
