Yonik Seeley commented on SOLR-1959:
------------------------------------

bq. The problem is that URLs are urlencoded with UTF-8 but the Content-type: 
header is not set.

Content-type does not apply to a GET.  The URL in a GET is strictly defined to 
be percent encoded UTF-8 bytes.  For historic reasons, Tomcat defaults to 
latin-1, and it needs to be changed in the server config.

> The SolrJ query operation fails to set the character encoding when doing a 
> GET. It works when doing a POST.
> The problem is that URLs are urlencoded with UTF-8 but the Content-type: 
> header is not set. I tested it with "Content-Type:text/plain;charset=utf-8" 
> and that worked. The Content-type header encoding defaults to ISO 8859-1.
> The result is that SolrJ queries fail for any search with a character above 
> 127. The work around is to use a POST query instead of a GET. I have not 
> searched for other places. So, change: 
> {code}
> QueryResponse qr = CommonsHttpSolrServer.query(query);
> {code}
> to:
> {code}
> QueryResponse qr = CommonsHttpSolrServer.query(query, 
> SolrRequest.METHOD.POST);
> {code}
> One quirk of this behavior is that url-bashing a query string with an ISO 
> 8859-1 character (like an umlaut) works in a browser, but fails in a SolrJ 
> request.. It also searches correctly from the admin/index.jsp and 
> admin/form.jsp pages, because they set the content-type in the FORM 
> declaration.
