The docs seem very vague on this issue, but it does imply that I could still use $CATALINA_HOME/conf/server.xml One question that isn't answered in the docs is what the root element should be - the best seems to be the example for accessing a database, and even there it puts <Context ...> I tried with context.xml in the directory you mentioned and it said it couldn't find the webapp "context", so I renamed it to my application and tried again. But it didn't work.
