I don't know about any docker-related differences, but.... I think that if you put a context config file under Catalina/localhost you need to name the .xml file the same as your .war file. So if you have foo.war, then you'd have Catalina/localhost/foo.xml
You can also put a file named context.xml into the .war file itself, under META-INF directory.
