That explains why you had problems.  The one in conf contains attributes
to be shared by *all* webapps; under no circumstances should it ever
contain any app-specific settings.

The other context.xml files define Tomcat-specific attributes for each
associated webapp that are needed for proper treatment of the webapp but
are not described in the servlet spec.  Each container handles this a
bit differently.

Once upon a time, <Context> elements had to be in server.xml, which
required restarting Tomcat if anything needed changing.  For the past
few years, Tomcat has made it possible to place <Context> elements in
webapp-specific locations, allowing changes with only a restart of the
particular webapp, not the whole container.  Consequently, the path and
docBase attributes are no longer appropriate in most instances.

The <Context> doc is here:
