Time to upgrade. It's 7.0.21 time.

You should look at your old configuration to see what was enabling the
writes to those files. I suspect that WebDAV is involved. Tomcat does
support WebDAV:
http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-7.0-doc/api/org/apache/catalina/servlets/WebdavServlet.html

catalina.policy is only for use with a SecurityManager.

You may still have a file and/or directory permissions problem.

Something I would also caution you about: if you undeploy your webapp,
Tomcat will delete all the files in the deployment directory, probably
including your calendar files. So.... maybe you want to put those
somewhere else when you configure WebDAV.
