I assure you that Struts 1.1 works on Tomcat 7.0.57 and Java 1.6. What
you describe is my production environment, which works quite well.

Evidently, you are missing validator-rules.xml from your /WEB-INF/
directory. The Struts validator plug-in uses struts-config.xml to
locate the validator-rules.xml file. Look at your web.xml to find out
what file Struts is using to load its configuration.
You are looking for the "config" init-param for the
"org.apache.struts.action.ActionServlet" servlet. There may be more
than one file listed under "config"; you'll have to check them all.
Look in each of those "config" files. Look for the string
"org.apache.struts.validator.ValidatorPlugIn", which will define a
plug-in. The "pathnames" property for the plug-in will list the files
that the validator plug-in is going to try to load.
All of those files need to be available on the classpath or
filesystem. You probably have something like this:
<plug-in className="org.apache.struts.validator.ValidatorPlugIn">
<set-property property="pathnames"
value="/org/apache/struts/validator/validator-rules.xml,
/WEB-INF/validator-rules.xml" />
<set-property property="stopOnFirstError" value="false" />
</plug-in>
Check to see that all of those paths point to actual resources that
can be loaded from your web application. Note that the first value
(/org/apache/struts/validator/validator-rules.xml) is loaded from one
of the Struts JAR files.
BTW Struts 1-based applications also work just fine on Tomcat 8 and
Java 8. Since you are upgrading, you should probably go all the way up.
Hope that helps,
