Cannot load template in Linux using Spring FreeMarkerConfigurationFactory

Hi

I have a web app on Tomcat 6 that loads FreeMarker templates via
org.springframework.ui.freemarker.FreeMarkerConfigurationFactory. The web
app is plain JSP (not Spring MVC). The app works fine in a Windows
environment, but will not work on Linux (Slackware 13.37 64 bit). When I
run it on Linux it gives me a file not found exception. I have tried
multiple variations on this configuration including putting my templates
directory in the classpath, using Spring prefixes like "file:" and
"classpath:" for the templateLoaderPath.  Nothing has worked.  Please let
me know if you have any ideas to fix. Thanks, Peter.

    <!-- Freemarker template config factory. Works on Windows -->
    <bean id="freemarkerTemplateConfigFactory"
class="org.springframework.ui.freemarker.FreeMarkerConfigurationFactory">
        <property name="templateLoaderPath" value="/WEB-INF/ftemplates/" />
    </bean>

    <bean id="templateService" class="com.mypkg.service.TemplateService">
       <property name="configurationFactory"
ref="freemarkerTemplateConfigFactory" />
    </bean>
