严重: Exception starting filter struts2

严重: Context [/Struts2Demo2] startup failed due to previous errors
　　网上的好多人说是struts2的bug具体的原因我还真不知道，看到网上说是因为tomcat的路径支持空格，和这个原因有关。然后，我就把tomcat卸掉，重新安装了一遍（在重新安装的过程中可能会出现警告框，直接点忽略就可以了），在安装的过程中在选择安装路径的时候要把，tomcat 6.0之间的空格去掉，然后启动，问题解决。
　　这次的问题，具体的愿意我也搞不懂，如果有哪位大神看见了呢，我们可以探讨。有什么不对的呢，还请指出，这个问题我还真不太明白，主要是对tomcat的原理不太清楚。
