Description
                        
                        
                            When deployed on Microsoft Windows, the relative path is parsed correctly, but when deployed on Linux the file is not found even though it exists at the correct location.
How can we make our application portable?
                         
                     
                    
                    
                    
                    
                        
                            
                                
Resolution
                            
                            
                                Use the forward-slash character, "/", as a file-path separator in all TIBCO Streaming configuration and in StreamBase Studio operator properties settings which take a file path for all operating systems.
The back-slash character, "\", is interpreted as an escape character within strings on Linux operating systems and is not converted to an operating-system specific path separator.
