This worked in Struts 1.1, so there must have been some change. Looking at the source for commons-validator, I see that it's trying to use local copies of the DTDs, rather than go out to the network. In org.apache.commons.validator.ValidatorResources, look at the variable "registrations." Struts also uses similar code when loading the struts-config file, and it seems to work there. I noticed that the file it looks for, /org/apache/commons/validator/resources/validator_1_1_3.dtd, isn't in the commons-validator.jar included with Struts. This is noted in a bug report: http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=31094. So this is probably why it's failing. Can you try patching the jar file with that DTD, and see if it works? You can get the DTD at http://jakarta.apache.org/commons/dtds/validator_1_1_3.dtd, and it goes into /org/apache/commons/validator/resources/validator_1_1_3.dtd. I won't be able to patch mine for a little while, but I'd like to know if this is the solution.
