As specified in another post, you put the properties files in
WEB-INF/classes. This is good.

Now, assume the the ResourceBundle is called "LocalStrings", the Locale
specified is Dutch, and the default locale is US english. Then according
to the API, the code looks for the first of these files it can find:
- LocalStrings_nl_NL.propertyies
- LocalStrings_nl.properties
- LocalStrings_en_US.propertyies
- LocalStrings_en.properties
- LocalStrings.properties

Does either one of the files needed exist? Does the last one (always have
a default)?

If the file does exist, a MissingResourceException is thrown when a given
key doesn't exist. So that's a second place you may want to look.
