doc/userGuide installation.xml
Log:
Update the installation page to document the security manager permission you
will need to grant when running Struts 1.1 (and thus commons-beanutils) apps
that have mapped properties in their form beans.
Remove 7579, which has been resolved.

+<h3>Running Struts Applications Under A Security Manager</h3>
+
+<p>Many application servers execute web applications under the control of a
+Java security manager, with restricted permissions on what classes in the web
+application can do. If you utilize form beans with mapped properties, you may
+encounter security exceptions unless you add the following permission to the
+set of permissions granted to your Struts application's codebase:</p>
+<pre>
+ permission java.lang.RuntimePermission "accessDeclaredMembers";
+</pre>
+
+<p>Consult the documentation on your application server for more information
+about how to configure additional security manager permissions.</p>
