Struts + Spring Integration issue with struts-config.xml - spring

Question

I am trying to integrate Struts with Spring.
Struts alone is working fine. However when I am trying to put:
<plug-in className="org.springframework.web.struts.ContextLoaderPlugIn">
<set-property property="contextConfigLocation"
value="/WEB-INF/lib/WebApplicationSpringContext.xml" />
</plug-in>
<controller processorClass="org.springframework.web.struts.DelegatingRequestProcessor" />
element in side struts-config.xml, The xml start throwing
The content of element type "struts-config" must match "(data-sources?,form-beans?,global-exceptions?,global-
forwards?,action-mappings?,controller?,message-resources*,plug-in*)".
Following is my struts-config.xml:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE struts-config PUBLIC "-//Apache Software Foundation//DTD Struts Configuration 1.1//EN"
"http://jakarta.apache.org/struts/dtds/struts-config_1_1.dtd">
<struts-config>
<form-beans>
<form-bean name="userForm"
type="com.sample.form.UserForm" />
</form-beans>
<action-mappings>
<action path="/user" type="com.sample.action.UserAction"
name="userForm" scope="request" validate="true">
<forward name="success" path="/WEB-INF/jsp/welcome.jsp" />
<forward name="failed" path="/WEB-INF/jsp/user.jsp" />
</action>
</action-mappings>
<plug-in className="org.springframework.web.struts.ContextLoaderPlugIn">
<set-property property="contextConfigLocation"
value="/WEB-INF/lib/WebApplicationSpringContext.xml" />
</plug-in>
<controller processorClass="org.springframework.web.struts.DelegatingRequestProcessor" />
</struts-config>
Following is WebApplicationSpringContext.xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
<beans:beans xmlns="http://www.springframework.org/schema/security"
xmlns:beans="http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans" xmlns:p="http://www.springframework.org/schema/p"

</beans:beans>
I am stuck with struts-config.xml.

Answer 1

The content of element type "struts-config" must match "(data-sources?,form-beans?,global-exceptions?,global-
forwards?,action-mappings?,controller?,message-resources*,plug-in*)".
Try putting:
<controller processorClass=...
above:
<plug-in className="
meaning switch the tags order

Answer 2

Try this:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

I m assuming that you have all correct jar files in build path.
