I solved this exception swapping the version of the XML Schema for the Servlet deployment descriptor (web.xml).
I trying to use the Schema version 2.5, but in WebSphere Application Server 6.1 this version is not supported.
I swapped the version to version 2.4, but for the version 2.4 work correctly is necessary that the elements of the tag <servlet> stay in the correct order. In version 2.5 whatever the order =)
The wrong order was:
The right order is:ActionServlet ActionServlet Struts Action Servlet org.apache.struts.action.ActionServlet config /WEB-INF/struts-config.xml 1
Struts ActionServlet ActionServlet ActionServlet org.apache.struts.action.ActionServlet config /WEB-INF/struts-config.xml 1
Above the exception LOG.
