I have war file in Tomcat 10.1 with a context.xml file included in the

It's contents are

I am getting 404s from my app and was wondering if this is still
supported under 10.1 as it was under 9.0

Support is unchanged. From the 9.0.x docs:

The value of this field must not be set unless the Context element is defined 
in server.xml or the docBase is not located under the Host's appBase.

The above setting is not valid on any currently supported version of Tomcat 
including 9.0.x.

A check of the archives show that the same (or very similar) text exists in the 
docs all the way back to 5.5.

Weird because it did work under 9.0 with Spring MVC 4

Not sure if I understand your answer......but should I NOW place this in the 
server.xml? As my docBase is under the webapps folder which I understand to be 
my docBase by default

As follows............
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<Context path="/codereaper" docBase="webapps">
</Context>

No, you should have:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<Context/>

If you want your application to be deployed on /codereaper then you should re-name the WAR file to codereaper.war (or WAR-like directory in webapps to "codereaper" - without quotes) in webapps/.

I'm pretty sure you don't even need a META-INF/context.xml file if it's so trivial. So I would delete it, re-name your WAR file (or dir) and try that.
