I think you may have misconstrued something in the docs. There's
nothing wrong with modifying server.xml; for example, production
environments must change it and web.xml to remove development-oriented
attributes. Certainly you should not place <Context> elements in
server.xml, since that requires a Tomcat restart to modify webapp
attributes.

I would remove the <Host> entry for localhost, since, as someone else
pointed out, its appBase points to a parent directory of the other
<Host>s, and this is at best bad practice and confusing, even if not
necessarily causing errors.

I don't have a problem doing this. All I did was place a copy of
manager.xml is each conf/Catalina/[host] directory, and all apps deploy
properly under each of their hosts. Did you change something in
manager.xml?
