I have a web application and I would like to run it from a disc. So, in order to do this, I have created an .iso file from it and then configured tomcat to run it from there using the solution found here. But for some reason I get this exception:

Now here is the really funny part: I have the EXACT same application somewhere on my hard disk. If I change the myapp.xml file(see link above) to point to the application on my hard disk, everything runs perfect.
Why am I getting this really strange behaviour?
