this line say the root cause for the issue

  Caused by: java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Filter mapping specifies an unknown filter name struts2

This error occurs in the following situations:

your web.xml file has a <filter-mapping> with no matching <filter>. Each mapping must include a <filter-name> that matches a <filter-name> in a <filter> element.
your web.xml file has a correctly matched filter-mapping and filter element, but the filter-mapping appears before the filter. The filter-mapping must appear below the filter, because the file is parsed in order.

Just googled and found this url. check and see whether it is useful to you

 http://wiki.metawerx.net/wiki/Java.lang.IllegalArgumentException


As per you web xml following is the correct one

<filter>
   <filter-name>struts2</filter-name>
      <filter-  class>org.apache.struts2.dispatcher.ng.filter.StrutsPrepareAndExecuteFilter</filter-class>

Your filter configuration is wrong. This is the correct one:

<filter>
  <filter-name>struts2</filter-name>
  <filter-class>org.apache.struts2.dispatcher.ng.filter.StrutsPrepareAndExecuteFilter</filter-class>
</filter>

<filter-mapping>
  <filter-name>struts2</filter-name>
  <url-pattern>/*</url-pattern>
</filter-mapping>

Your filter name is struts while it should be struts2, because in your configuration in <filter> configuration you have a filter named: struts and your are mapping it in <filter-mapping> with a name struts2. This filter is unknown, because there is no filter named struts2. Paste the configuration as above and everything should be fine.

to the best of my knowledge some of your jars are from struts1 and some from struts2 , so please make sure you have added all jars either from struts1 or struts2
