You should probably confirm the default web.xml located in $TOMCAT_HOME/conf/web.xml.
Make sure the PUT method is removed from the following:
<security-constraint>
<web-resource-collection>
<web-resource-name>restricted methods</web-resource-name>
<url-pattern>/*</url-pattern>
<http-method>TRACE</http-method>
<http-method>PUT</http-method>
<http-method>OPTIONS</http-method>
<http-method>DELETE</http-method>
</web-resource-collection>
<auth-constraint/>
