Answer 1

You have put the Struts 2 jars in the Tomcat library directory:

Caused by: Bean type class com.opensymphony.xwork2.ObjectFactory with 
the name xwork has already been loaded by bean - 
jar:file:/C:/apache-tomcat-7.0.25-windows-x86/apache-tomcat-7.0.25/lib/struts2-core-2.3.4.1.jar!/struts-default.xml:29:72

Remove Struts-related libraries from the servlet container; deploy them only with your app.
