RE: [Flock-devel] XML file has no top-element?

As Zombie said, if you're using the WAR under tomcat/jetty/whatever then the "java -jar -Dflock.home start.jar" command doesn't apply.
I found the easiest thing to do when I ran it under jboss for a while was to just add an environment variable e.g. FLOCK_HOME=/home/jboss/flock .

For permissions, you need to make sure that whatever user tomcat/jetty/whatever is running as has permissions to the FLOCK_HOME directory you specify (in my example, jboss was running as a user "jboss") not necessarily *your* permissions. 

Take care,

John
