Thanks. This project has been sputtering along for a fair number of years, and my context.xml almost certainly began life inside conf/ server.xml. I would be fairly confident in betting that I moved it out on earlier advice from you, but that I didn't clean it up then.
Well, I have now.
Cheers,
Ken

One question:  What does it mean to say "the path attribute is not
allowed"? (My context.xml is in META-INF).  Should I be seeing a
complaint when Tomcat starts the app?

Unfortunately, Tomcat won't complain about it (although I think it should). The path attribute is only valid when the <Context> element is nested inside of a <Host> element in conf/server.xml - which is very strongly discouraged. Using a path attribute in any other circumstance is not permitted, but not diagnosed. At best, it will confuse anyone looking at your configuration, possibly thinking that something meaningful is being done with it.
