Turbine startup failure

[Baojong]

Hi everyone,
When I startup tomcat I keep getting this turbine failed to init message -

Log4j runs fine, just turbine is giving me a hard time.
Here is my web.xml from my app -

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>

<!DOCTYPE web-app

And here is my TurbineResources.properties file, which is where I think the problem could be -


# -------------------------------------------------------------------

# The amount of time (in milliseconds) a connection request will have to wait
# before a time out occurs and an error is thrown.

database.connectionWaitTimeout=10000

# The interval (in milliseconds) between which the PoolBrokerService logs
# the status of it's ConnectionPools.

# Default: No logging = 0 = 0 * 1000

database.logInterval=0

# These are the supported JDBC drivers and their associated Turbine
# adaptor. These properties are used by the DBFactory. You can add
# all the drivers you want here.

database.adaptor=DBMM
database.adaptor.DBMM=org.gjt.mm.mysql.Driver

When I delete the just Turbine startup code from my web.xml everything runs fine, but if I remove just my Log4j startup code, tomcat starts up and than immediately shuts down again. My log4j.jar, turbine-2.1b4.jar, mm.mysql-2.0.14-bin.jar and velocity-1.2-dev.jar packages are all in the classpath. Any help or insight will be appreciated.
Cheers,
Bao.
