I vaguely recall a thread like that, but can't find it either. 

I did find this [1].  So you might try adding something like
-Djava.security.debug=configfile,configparser to you JVM startup and
see what that gets you.  The output will go to stdout/stderr, so need
to check wherever your container sends that (in Tomcat, catalina.out).
