后面一查，是xerces-2.6.2.jar惹的祸
把这个jar包删除就可以了！
原因：
jar包有冲突, 应该是XML解析包有冲突. 检查发布后的WEB-INF/lib有两个XML解析包:xml-apis.jar和xerces-2.6.2.jar 这种错误真正原因不是JDK 6和Struts 2冲突, 而是MyEclipse Hibernate 类库中多了两个包: xml-apis.jar和xerces-2.6.2.jar,这两个包的功能和JDK的冲突了. 解决办法: 1. 删除发布后目录的 WEB-INF/lib/ 下的xerces-2.6.2.jar这个文件; 2. 或者使用JDK1.5来启动Tomcat 6.
