folder and the struts.xml file is as shown below:

I'm still getting this exception while running the application.

For new release of Struts2 class path changed as like below (Struts 2.5)
org.apache.struts2.dispatcher.filter.StrutsPrepareAndExecuteFilter
Package names have changed Some classes were moved to different packages, see the list below for more details:
New:

Regarding to the error mentioned SEVERE: Exception starting filter struts2 java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: org.apache.struts2.dispatcher.ng.filter.StrutsPrepareAndExecuteFilter
PROBLEM: There seems to be a problem with the following combination Eclipse - WTPPlugin - Struts2 - Maven3
FINDINGS: We assume that when we run a project as "Run on server" we assume that eclipse runs maven, created WAR file and deploys on the server. But its not working perfectly for me. I do see the WAR file in the target folder where maven creates WAR, and the WAR is perfect. But eclipse seems to run something else.
SOLUTION: Put all the required JAR files into eclipse project's WEB-INF/lib. If you are using version control, make sure to ignore the lib folder. How to find all the required JARs when you are using maven? Go to target folder and the WAR file. Burst it open and go to WEB-INF/lib. Copy all these JARS to eclipse project's WEB-INF/lib.
Thanks, Harsh
Include this mapping in your web.xml
file
struts2 org.apache.struts2.dispatcher.ng.filter.StrutsPrepareAndExecuteFilter struts2 /*
It happened with me, and I solve it by recreating the artifacts from Intellij settings. If you use Intellij, you need to recreate the Artifacts for your web project again.
