Hi,

You have to use the latest filter dispatcher to resolve the issue.

Here is the code you should use the following code in web.xml file:

  <filter>
    <filter-name>struts2</filter-name>
    <filter-class>
      org.apache.struts2.dispatcher.FilterDispatcher
    </filter-class>
  </filter>

Check more tutorials of Struts 2.

Thanks
