严重: Error filterStart 
2011-8-28 1:19:47 org.apache.catalina.core.StandardContext start 

严重: Context [] startup failed due to previous errors

原因：

问题处在你导入的“Struts2 Spring Libraries”库下的“Struts2-spring-plugin-2.2.1.jar”jar包下的struts-plugin.xml里。如下图：

问题出现的具体位置在上图所示的第29行的代码，这段代码如下：

<bean type="com.opensymphony.xwork2.ObjectFactory" name="spring" class="org.apache.struts2.spring.StrutsSpringObjectFactory" /> 
       这 表明该插件引入工程后，会自动设置Struts的 ObjectFactory为       StrutsSpringObjectFactory，从而让Spring的IOC容器来托管Struts的Action。但是      在工程的web.xml中      没有配置      加载spring ApplicationContext相关的listener      ，从而导致了启动时出现的问题：com/opensymphony/xwork2/spring/SpringObjectFactory.java:220:-1。

解决办法是不要导入    struts2-spring-plugin-2.3.16.1.jar 包

就是这么简单，等需要用的时候在导入spring包。说句实话，用ssm（ssh）开发配置实在是太麻烦了。
