The ususal way to expose resource bundles for use with Struts1 is to
include the properties files in the webapp's classpath, configure them
in struts-config.xml and let Struts deal with loading them. Is there a
reason you need to store the files external to the webapp and load them
manually?

If you really do need to do that, you'll have to have your loading code
take care of loading the properties into the appropriate bundle type too.
