With struts2-core-2.0.12.jar it works fine, but after the update to struts2-core-2.1.6.jar, I get the following error:

Caused by: There is no result type defined for type 'redirect-action' mapped with name 'success'.  Did you mean 'redirectAction'? - result - file:/D:/eclipse-indigo/workspace/.metadata/.plugins/org.eclipse.wst.server.core/tmp1/wtpwebapps/Fundation/WEB-INF/classes/struts.xml:19:54

What is causing the error?

You are using old notation for action redirect result. Change redirect-action to redirectAction.
