Thank you so much for your help.
I found the problem. I saw in an article how the
validatorPlugin was defined with a set-property
property="pathnames" for the validation.xml and the
validator-rules.xml.
Either that does not work or I did it wrong. I went back to
having a comma separated list. It's ugly, but it works:
<plug-in
className="org.apache.struts.validator.ValidatorPlugIn">
<set-property property="pathnames"
value="/WEB-INF/validation.xml,/WEB-INF/validator-rules.xml"/>
</plug-in>
