For security reasons, the deployment program installs only files relative to the installation directory. Relative file paths specified in the manifest are honored (subdirectories are created under the installation directory as necessary), but absolute file paths are discarded and the files are installed in the installation directory.
If the file does not need to be extracted to a subdirectory, no resolution is necessary. If the file must be in a separate directory, move it manually or redeploy the service with a relative path specified for the file.
