[Tomcat] Issues with usernames containing special characters
By default, Tomcat uses ISO-8859-1 character encoding when decoding URL received from a browser. This can cause problems if you use international characters in username when creating a user.
To avoid issues with special characters:
- Stop Tomcat
- Go in the Tomcat directory
- Edit conf/server.xml and find the line where the Coyote HTTP Connector is defined. It will look something like this, possibly with more parameters:
<Connector port="8080"/> - Add a URIEncoding="UTF-8" property to the connector:
<Connector port="8080" URIEncoding="UTF-8"/> - Save and close the file
- Restart Tomcat
