Don Brown commented on WW-2003:
-------------------------------

This is pretty weird... so you are saying that if you extract struts-default.xml to WEB-INF/classes then it breaks?  The stacktrace you provide show the file being served from the jar.  If the problem is that the struts-default.xml has to be loaded by the same _classloader_ as the Struts classes, well that is certainly the case.

> The following issue is caused when struts-default.xml exists outside the jar ahead in the classpath (e.g. in the classes directory of the webapp).  Fix for now is to remove the xml from classes directory, it has to be loaded from within the struts core jar.
