title: Accessing mule-app.properties in custom properties file located in src/main/resources on cloudhub
body: <p>I have a mule application built using mule apikit. The mule-app.properties file contains below property:</p>
  
  <pre><code>orig.db.url=jdbc:db2://mmrs001.nmd.net:1004/dudu:user=abc43;password=xxxx;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>The custom properties file src/main/resources/dev.properties contains below property:</p>
  
  <pre><code>db.url=${orig.db.url}
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>And, the mule configuration xml file contains below property-placeholder:</p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;context:property-placeholder location="dev.properties"/&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Now, when I deploy it locally everything works fine and I am able to run the flow. But, at the same time when I deploy on Cloudhub it gives me below exception:</p>
  
  <pre><code>Invalid bean definition with name 'get:/total_amount:total_amount-db-config' defined in null: Could not resolve placeholder 'orig.db.url' in string value "jdbc:db2://mmrs001.nmd.net:1004/dudu:user=abc43;password=xxxx;"
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I am unable to understand what am I missing here?</p>
