>                 Key: WW-2530
>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/struts/browse/WW-2530
>             Project: Struts 2
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: Documentation
>    Affects Versions: 2.0.11
>            Reporter: Dan Peder Eriksen
>
> If:
> <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
> <!DOCTYPE validators PUBLIC
>         "-//OpenSymphony Group//XWork Validator Config 1.0//EN"
>         "http://www.opensymphony.com/xwork/xwork-validator-config-1.0.dtd">
> is missing from validators.xml the following error appears:
> java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: Could not initialize class com.opensymphony.xwork2.validator.ValidatorFactory
> http://struts.apache.org/2.x/docs/validation.html does not include the DTD for validation.xml. Hence it is easy for those who are starting out with struts 2 to omit the DTD, as I did.
> What I would like to see is a better error message. I first thought that it was a classloading problem when it really is a XML problem.
