Aspose.Cells.Java - FileNotFound exception when loading license

I followed your instructions and copied the license file into the same folder where Aspose.Cells.jar resides but when I execute the code below I get a FileNotFound exception when opening the stream. I’m using the lastest version from the website, version 1.9.5

License license = new License();
inputStream = new FileInputStream( “Aspose.Cells.lic” );
license.setLicense(inputStream);

How do I solve this problem without moving the license file into the web application space?
