Stream Closed error for accessing .yml file

Unable to access the .yml file as the it is not getting read. Not sure if the path is wrong or that given I am on Mac, I need different way for path setup.

I am trying to access .yml which is housed under src/yml/server.yml and getting the Stream Closed error.

Test class is located here for reference:

src/smokeTest/java/package.package.../SmokeTest.java

Code:

Yaml yaml = new Yaml();
InputStream ymlReader = this.getClass().getClassLoader().getResourceAsStream("yml/server.yml");

Map<String, Object> yamlMaps = yaml.load(ymlReader);

LOG.info("Value of Status Flag", yamlMaps.get("status"));

Error:

I tried the solutions from these but they did not work:

Getting "java.io.IOException: Stream closed", when trying to read file from relative path

SnakeYaml keep IOException: Stream closed

this.getClass().getClassLoader().getResourceAsStream("yml/server.yml");

This will only get the files below the current classpath. You should change the path of the yml to make sure it is in the current classloader directory
