Then you should take a look at this example "skeleton" turbine webapp. It's a working example that you should be able to drop into Tomcat or Jetty and has the basic dir structure and config files. If you need more info, search for "skeleton" on the archive for this list.
Here is the url: http://www.yorku.ca/dkha/turbine/skeleton/index.htm (IMHO I think the "newapp" example is too much for a turbine newbie to fully grasp. I personally skipped it after being frustrated myself and then only came back to it later when I got a better understanding of how things worked.)
