Struts2 convention plugin (m2eclipse/geronimo)

Using convention-plugin seems really easy but im not able to make it work :(

I'm using struts2 version 2.2.3

I have a package named com.medicis.actions with a UserAction extending ActionSupport. I don't have any struts.xml file I have the convention-plugin depency set on my maven configuration (i also checked the generated war file) There is my web.xml : 

<display-name>Starter</display-name>

<context-param>
    <param-name>contextConfigLocation</param-name>
    <param-value>classpath*:applicationContext*.xml</param-value>
</context-param>

<!-- Filters -->
<filter>
    <filter-name>action2-cleanup</filter-name>
    <filter-class>org.apache.struts2.dispatcher.ActionContextCleanUp</filter-class>
</filter>
<filter>
    <filter-name>sitemesh</filter-name>
    <filter-class>com.opensymphony.module.sitemesh.filter.PageFilter</filter-class>
</filter>
<filter>
    <filter-name>action2</filter-name>
    <filter-class>org.apache.struts2.dispatcher.FilterDispatcher</filter-class>
</filter>
<filter-mapping>
    <filter-name>action2-cleanup</filter-name>
    <url-pattern>/*</url-pattern>
</filter-mapping>
<filter-mapping>
    <filter-name>sitemesh</filter-name>
    <url-pattern>/*</url-pattern>
</filter-mapping>
<filter-mapping>
    <filter-name>action2</filter-name>
    <url-pattern>/*</url-pattern>
</filter-mapping>

<!-- Listeners -->
<listener>
    <listener-class>org.springframework.web.context.ContextLoaderListener</listener-class>
</listener>

<servlet>
    <servlet-name>jspSupportServlet</servlet-name>
    <servlet-class>org.apache.struts2.views.JspSupportServlet</servlet-class>
    <load-on-startup>5</load-on-startup>
</servlet>

<!-- Welcome file lists -->
<welcome-file-list>
    <welcome-file>index.jsp</welcome-file>
</welcome-file-list>

</web-app>

I tried with and without the init param for the action2 filter: 

<init-param>
   <param-name>actionPackages</param-name>
   <param-value>com.medicis.actions</param-value>
</init-param>

I have this property set on my struts.propertie file :

struts.action.extension=action

Still i'm unable to launch my action using localhost:8080/starter/user.action :

There is no Action mapped for namespace / and action name user

I really don't know what's going wrong, I even downloaded a simple example without any result either.

Could it be a configuration problem due to eclipse, m2eclipse, maven wtp or geronimo ???

If you need more information just tell me and i'll provide you that asap.

  1. Create struts.properties in "src" folder

  2. Copy and paste code from below:

    struts.convention.package.locators = actions
struts.convention.action.suffix = Controller
struts.convention.action.mapAllMatches = true

  3. Create class called IndexController in com.example.actions

  4. Copy and paste code from below:

    package com.example.actions;

import org.apache.struts2.interceptor.validation.SkipValidation;
import org.apache.struts2.rest.DefaultHttpHeaders;
import org.apache.struts2.rest.HttpHeaders;
import com.opensymphony.xwork2.ActionSupport;

public class UserController extends ActionSupport {

    public String index(){
        return SUCCESS
    }

}

You also need to create jsp file in WEB-INF/content/user/index.jsp
