这个问题主要是由于配置文件对应不上造成的，也就是说你的web.xml文件中关于struts的配置说明( struts -[*-config.xml])在指定的目录下没找到造成的，如：

 

<init-param>
            <param-name>config/console/workflow</param-name>
            <param-value>
                /WEB-INF/struts-conf/struts-flow.xml
            </param-value>
        </init-param>

 

 

而在       /WEB-INF/struts-conf/struts-flow.xml 下并没有找到 struts-flow.xml文件，此时，就会报这个错！！请校正~
