I tried to install the PocketDiary module but I had some problem.
I follow the instruction at:

http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Modules

so first I copy the files in my texmf-local directory and after that I run:

You are storing the files according the Tex Directory Structure, right?

context --generate

but context didn't find the new module.

I use linux and I have installed texlive 2015 in my home directory, so my 
texmf-local directory is /home/admich/texlive/texmf-local

In the output of  context --generate I noticed the following lines:

...
resolvers       | resolving | locating list of 
'home/admich/texlive/texmf-local' (cached)
resolvers       | methods | resolving, method 'locators', how 'uri', handler 
'file', argument 'home/admich/texlive/texmf-local'
resolvers       | files | file locator 'home/admich/texlive/texmf-local' not 
found
...

This seems not correct because is missing the initial / . For example the 
following lines are:

resolvers       | resolving | locating list of 'selfautoparent:texmf-dist' 
(cached)
resolvers       | methods | resolving, method 'locators', how 'uri', handler 
'file', argument 'selfautoparent:texmf-dist'
resolvers       | files | file locator 'selfautoparent:texmf-dist' found as 
'/home/admich/texlive/2015/texmf-dist'
resolvers       | resolving |
...

with the right initial /

kpathsea find the right $TEXMFLOCAL:

~$ kpsewhich -var-value TEXMFLOCAL
/home/admich/texlive/texmf-local

context (mkiv) does not use kpse (texmf.cnf) but uses the values stored it texmfcnf.lua. To check the value of TEXMFLOCAL use

mtxrun --expand-var TEXMFLOCAL

You can also try:

context --trackers=resolvers.\* filename
