This has to do with the applicationresources.properties files that you have configured in your struts-config.xml. It's not able to find the properties file that you have specified under the <message-resources> XML element, in the struts xml config file.
This properties file can be placed under any "WEB-INF" directory, provided <message-resources> element points to it. Just check out one of the sample struts application.
