Hi,

Orbeon internally uses some kind of "multi-layer file-system" for loading files.
So, if it can not find the file in the config folder, it will look through (all
or some of, I am not sure here) the jar files stored in the lib folder. The file
you are looking for can be found in orbeon-resources-private.jar.
This is actually a very powerful mechanism allowing you to easily override
specific files shipped with Orbein, and still be fairly upgradable (for example,
to change the epilogue behaviour). However it can get confusing as it is hard
to see what "view" on the files Orbeon actually has.
Btw, if you want to edit the configuration, you should not add a custom
properties-form-runner.xml file as that will *overwrite* the default one and
therefore delete all the factory defaults. Instead, add a file called
properties-local.xml to the config folder, which will not override any existing
file, but will be parsed by the config parser to only change the options you
want.

Kind regards,
Ralf
