Indeed, I had the same problem on 5.0.25 once, use this filter in your web.xml 
to have UTF-8 encoding for all requests.

        <filter>
                <filter-name>encodingFilter</filter-name>
                <filter-class>filters.SetCharacterEncodingFilter</filter-class>
                <init-param>
                        <param-name>encoding</param-name>
                        <param-value>UTF-8</param-value>
                </init-param>
        </filter>
        <filter-mapping>
                <filter-name>encodingFilter</filter-name>
                <url-pattern>/*</url-pattern>
        </filter-mapping>
