Have you tried making a symbolic link from /usr/local/watermarks to
$TOMCAT_HOME/webapps/watermarks?
The syntax would be:
ln -s /usr/local/watermarks $TOMCAT_HOME/webapps/watermarks
Also check the manager app, tomcat may not be recognizing things, in which
case you'd not see it in the manager. Or it might be that tomcat, for
whatever reason, isn't starting the context.
