Note that Tomcat 8 has different default for URIEncoding.

  
  <<Anchor(Q2)>>'''How do I change how GET parameters are interpreted?'''
  
- Tomcat will use ISO-8859-1 as the default character encoding of the entire 
URL, including the query string ("GET parameters").
+ Tomcat will use ISO-8859-1 as the default character encoding of the entire 
URL, including the query string ("GET parameters") (though see Tomcat 8 notice 
below).
  
  There are two ways to specify how GET parameters are interpreted:
  
   1. Set the `URIEncoding` attribute on the <Connector> element in server.xml 
to something specific (e.g. `URIEncoding="UTF-8"`).
   1. Set the `useBodyEncodingForURI` attribute on the <Connector> element in 
server.xml to `true`. This will cause the Connector to use the request body's 
encoding for GET parameters.

Connector]]
+ In Tomcat 8 starting with 8.0.0 (8.0.0-RC3, to be specific), the default 
value of `URIEncoding` attribute on the <Connector> element depends on "strict 
servlet compliance" setting. The default value (strict compliance is off) of 
`URIEncoding` is now `UTF-8`. If "strict servlet compliance" is enabled, the 
default value is `ISO-8859-1`.
