I have delved into the source code, and after a minor fiddle with the
tomcat server.xml to ensure that URIEncoding is set correctly I am
certain that these three requirements are currently fulfilled, and were
so before. I have disabled RequestDumperValve after reading something
about issues it causes with setCharacterEncoding, and instead am relying
on our own log4j debug output.
Annoyingly (or not, depending on how you look at it), I am having
trouble reproducing the problem again! Perhaps I had fixed it with the
URIEncoding setting, only not noticed because I still had
RequestDumperValve enabled.
This problem has been strangely elusive; sometimes I have problems and
other times not, both within the same system and across other versions.
I'll keep an eye on it, and see if there's any more information I can
get out of it. I may be back later today ;)
Thanks all for your help,
Best Wishes,
