Musachy, First off, Hi.. My name is Dusty Pearce and I am long time webwork user. How do I pronounce your name? In my head its something like Moose-atch-ee....
With that out of the way, I feel like I am missing something simple, but if you have spring-jdbc in your pom.xml (dependency of spring security) the convention plugin throws NoClassDefError about not finding com/ibm/wsspi/uow/UOWAction which is an inner class of [org.springframework.transaction.jta.WebSphereUowTransactionManager. So its scanning all packages for the "Action" keyword. I tried to set struts.convention.action.packages and that did not fix it. I was not sure what other options to try (struts.convention.action.disableGlobalScanning?). I also thought that when I have the REST plugin with the convention plugin exclusion, that it would look for Controller rather than Action. Can you try and add spring-jdbc (2.0.8 and 2.5.4 did the same thing) to your pom.xml and see if you get the same result. I feel like I should be able to just figure out the right configuration....but any help would be appreciated.
