Are you accessing the properties file via ServletContext.getResource() or
ServletContext.getResourceAsStream()?  If so, it should be accessed with a
standard context-relative path like
"/WEB-INF/conf/TurbineResources.properties".  The path normalization code in
Tomcat does this to your "./" anyway, so the "." should actually be redundant
(unless you depend on it for some application specific reason).
