Obviously you are doing something wrong. :-)

Notice how there is no line number there? That makes this stack trace
useless for us. :-( Keep reading...

#1. Recompile Turbine with debugging on. You can do this by simply editing
the build-turbine.xml file and say modify the debug property at the top.
Send in the stack trace that has the line number instead of "Compiled Code".
You may also need to run the JVM with the JIT disabled since it also removes
the line numbers. That will help us point out the problem where things are
going wrong.
#2. Do you have all the relevant .jar's in the turbine/lib directory in your
classpath? If not, then you will need to do this.
#3. The TurbineResources.properties file doesn't go into the document root.
This is probably the source of your problem. Please read the installation
instructions more carefully. You need to specify it so that it can be read
by ServletConfig.getInitParameter().
good luck and don't forget to follow the directions. :-)
