You can't start up your server, hit the page in one language, change the language setting in your browser, and hit the page again and expect it to change languages. Struts sets the language in the session the first time you hit the site and not after that. This may be causing your strange problems.
Also, sometimes even after restarting tomcat my page wouldn't change languages so I think it reloaded my old session from disk or something. Generally, I've found that stopping the server and then changing your language works but not always. I would not allow direct access to your index.jsp files. Create an index.jsp that redirects to a struts action (through the controller) that forwards to index2.jsp (your real index page). That way, you're going through the controller for every request and can do some common security or logging there.
