I'm sure you've tried a lot of things, but here's a couple of extra ideas for a person-in-need:
1) Are you running tomcat on port 80, or on the default 8080? Using Apache as the webserver with the connector to tomcat, or what? 2) If you hit http://myurl.com:8080/qguide/ do you get a Tomcat message? 3) Can you browse folders from the Tomcat directory listing? If you're only getting error messages (access denied and the like) from Tomcat then it's a permission error with either your web.xml or (more likely) the server.xml for Tomcat. Check the server, because if it's loading the turbine servlet and serving pages but not giving access to subdirectories in the webapp it's for sure permissions.
