How to define a path for Tiles configurer? - spring-mvc

Question

My Spring application can not start because the path of the tiles.xml file that was working fine until now can not be reached. I can deploy it locally, but when I create a .war to upload it to the server it gives me the error.
Can anybody tell how much path should I define not to crash on this error when I am deploying the application?
(And why).
This is my qualified name is... path: /VotaIdeas/src/main/webapp/WEB-INF/tiles.xml

... and here is the tiles configurer in App.java:
#Bean
public TilesConfigurer tilesConfigurer() {
TilesConfigurer tilesConfigurer = new TilesConfigurer();
String[] defs = {"/WEB-INF/tiles.xml"};
tilesConfigurer.setDefinitions(defs);
return tilesConfigurer;
}
