      As of 4.5.2 its possible to use also the contextPath as a variable when locating the magnolia.properties file.

      The context path is the part of the URL that Magnolia is housed at. For instance in http://domain.com/magnoliaPublic, the context path is /magnoliaPublic.

      When Magnolia runs without a context path, at http://domain.com/ then we have the variable set to "ROOT".

      The new defaults are (tested in this order until a file is found):

        <context-param>
    <param-name>magnolia.initialization.file</param-name>
    <param-value>
      WEB-INF/config/${servername}/${contextPath}/magnolia.properties,
      WEB-INF/config/${servername}/${webapp}/magnolia.properties,
      WEB-INF/config/${servername}/magnolia.properties,
      WEB-INF/config/${contextPath}/magnolia.properties,
      WEB-INF/config/${webapp}/magnolia.properties,
      WEB-INF/config/default/magnolia.properties,
      WEB-INF/config/magnolia.properties
    </param-value>
  </context-param>
