Thanks for your answer. From the above topic, I see people looking for a solution. I can personally insert the date pattern directly in my java class, but this will make my program less configurable. Changing a xml is always more convenient that changing and recompiling your code. The question that remains in my head is why this changed in Struts 2.1.6. Was there an issue is 2.0.11 that had to change in 2.1.6? I personally loved the way I could get the servletContext in conversions since I can keep the formats I want in XML and use the framework to read the strings directly.

> I recently upgraded from Struts 2.0.11 to 2.1.6. I had a custom date converter class. In the convertValue method, I had the code:
> ServletContext servletContext = (ServletContext) context.get(StrutsStatics.SERVLET_CONTEXT);
> I was getting the servletContext and I was reading a param where I had my date pattern. 
> With 2.0.11, the above code returns the servletContext. With 2.1.6, I get null. Basically, the difference in the context provided through 
> public Object convertValue(Map context, Object value, Class toType) {}
> is this:
> 2.0.11
