I was able to fix the problems I encountered. In case someone else runs into the same difficulties, there were two issues at play.
The first was that the hostname I'd set in the tomcat config and jspwiki.properties file was not fully-qualified. This caused preferences not to be saved because the JavaScript had an invalid value for Wiki.BasePath (jspwiki-common.js, line 244). It had the last few characters of the hostname and the first few characters of the context name. Adding the domain name to the hostname in both those files got it working correctly. The second was just a permissions problem. The user and group databases were not writable by the Tomcat server process owner.
