What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Create a jsp with struts2 jquery tag defined.
2. Add a date picker field like below:
<sj:datepicker id='accountEffectiveFromDate' name='accountEffectiveFromDate' 
parentTheme="xhtml" required="true" />
3. Run the jsp file in a web application.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
Expected result: A page with date picker displayed.
What I see instead: Error 500 on my page with the log below in my tomcat logs:
