You need to make sure that your action is passing through an
interceptor-stack that includes ServletConfigInterceptor

http://struts.apache.org/2.x/core/apidocs/org/apache/struts2/interceptor/ServletConfigInterceptor.html


The struts-default package does include this.

http://struts.apache.org/2.x/docs/struts-defaultxml.html

Another thing you can do is call the static method
ServletActionContext.getServletContext() but this would be harder to support
in a unit testing environment. If you implement ServletContextAware, then
you could provide a mock ServletContext implementation in your unit test
setup, while you'd have a lot more awkward setup to do to make sure that
ServletActionContext.getServletContext was prepared to return a usable
value.
