Answer 1

If you are not using GXP plugin, then remove it from classpath. The referenced class is org.apache.struts2.views.gxp.inject.InjectedObjectContainer absent in the distribution. But you could download it from the SVN repositories if required.

You must not use plugin libraries unless:

1. They're actually needed; some change S2 behavior in fundamental ways.
2. Their dependencies are satisfied; some plugins require additional libraries.
3. Their version matches the S2 core libraries versions; mixing-and-matching versions may fail.

Using Maven or equivalent solves version and dependency issues.

Using only the plugins your app needs solves the others.
