Hi The '/tutorial/WEB-INF/lib/CORE&OPTIONAL *.jar' just means that you put the required jar files in folder /tutorial/WEB-INF/lib
I don't know what release you are using, but I could not find the spring files in release 2.0.1 where I expected to find them either. To get the spring files, Go to the apps directory Unzip file struts2-blank-2.0.1.war (jar -xf struts2-blank-2.0.1.war will do the trick) the extracted lib folder will contain the spring jars.
