Dear Emmanuel,

(Yes I had tomcat6, then went to tomcat8, skipping tomcat7; and have
inherited things.)

You seem to say that  /etc/tomcat8/Catalina/localhost  does not need to
be writable by tomcat8, setting it so was useless (thus wrong).
What about the  /etc/tomcat8/Catalina  directory, is there a need to set
it writable? Is there a need to have these owned by group tomcat8, could
they be left as root:root and world-accessible?

Cheers, Paul
