    If you receive an exception like

    Caused by: java.net.UnknownHostException: struts.apache.org

    during the building of the Struts2 XML configuration, then something is preventing the application from successfully retrieving the DTD.

    Changing the doctype declaration from 

       <!DOCTYPE struts PUBLIC "-//Apache Software Foundation//DTD Struts Configuration 2.3//EN" "http://struts.apache.org/dtds/struts-2.3.dtd">

    to either a local reference or just copying and pasting the DTD contents into its place will resolve the issue.
