初次学习Struts2，本着学习最新版本知识的原则，使用了Struts2.5.5版本。使用2.1版本没有问题，但是2.5版本果然会报错，完全靠自学。。。我真是解决两个小时啊！对新手来说上手坑真的比较多。。。
1.导入lib，我们只需要导入一些最小依赖包，下面列出的是我导入的
commons-fileupload-1.3.2.jar
commons-io-2.4.jar
commons-lang3-3.4.jar
commons-logging-1.1.3.jar
freemarker-2.3.23.jar
javassist-3.20.0-GA.jar
ognl-3.1.10.jar
struts2-core-2.5.5.jar
一共是8个包，不要漏掉。。。
（如果是struts2.5版本之前，还需要导入Xwork2包，现在已经合并到struts-core包中）
2.配置Web.xml的问题
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <web-app version="3.0" xmlns="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:schemaLocation="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee/web-app_3_0.xsd"> <display-name></display-name> <welcome-file-list> <welcome-file>result.jsp</welcome-file> </welcome-file-list> <filter> <filter-name>struts2</filter-name> <filter-class>org.apache.struts2.dispatcher.filter.StrutsPrepareAndExecuteFilter</filter-class> </filter> <filter-mapping> <filter-name>struts2</filter-name> <url-pattern>/*</url-pattern> </filter-mapping> </web-app>
注意：在Struts2.5之前，class配置为：<filter-class>org.apache.struts2.dispatcher.ng.filter.StrutsPrepareAndExecuteFilter</filter-class>，但是在2.5之后，已经取消了ng，改为<filter-class>org.apache.struts2.dispatcher.filter.StrutsPrepareAndExecuteFilter</filter-class>
在Struts2.5之前使用的是FilterDispatcher过滤器,改版之后可以在StrutsPrepareAndExecuteFilter之后和action执行之前添加自己的过滤器
3.<welcome-file>/result.jsp</welcome-file>
' / ' 加不加其实都可以，不影响
4.如果是struts2.5版本之后，会出现无法启动Tomcat的问题
总是抱错：A child container failed during start

其实是因为少导入了一个包（Caused by: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: org.apache.logging.log4j.Logger）：log4j-api-2.7.jar 。
加入之后问题解决！
