Myeclipse上启动Struts2项目报错（严重: Exception starting filter struts2）

学习Struts2，按照教学来实际操作时，发现我的项目根本起不来，在网上查了很久，有很多人说缺包导致的，然后就各种添加包，结果还是一样。

环境如下：

Myeclipse 8.5

Struts 2.1.6

Tomcat是Myeclipse内置

错误信息如下：

严重: Exception starting filter struts2

严重: Error filterStart

错误原因：

项目路径中存在空格导致，可能是Tomcat安装路径、Myeclipse的workspace地址中。我的错误就是Myeclipse的workspace路径中有空格（安装Myeclipse时根据向导默认的workspace路径是Workspaces\MyEclipse 8.5）

解决办法：

修改Myeclipse的workspace路径，去掉其中的空格。
