Thanks to permission from the PMC, the initial release of my alternative Windows installer is available: https://github.com/Bill-Stewart/ApacheTomcatSetup I designed this to meet some specific needs in my organization.

Your filter changes the encoding of both the request AND the response. It's likely that fixing the request-encoding was necessary, while changing the response-encoding was not. The problem is: 1. The official RFC-defined default character encoding for HTTP is ISO-8859-1. 2. The browser default appears to be unpredictable, but often UTF-8. 3. The browsers have all agreed not to tell the server what characted encoding is actually being used. It's fun. It's a very simply-solved problem: the browser should just advertise the character encoding and everything would be great. Sadly, n o.

Re: Tomcat9, JSP, CSS and JS not loading in Firefox
Hello, Thank you for your answer. So, I removed the filter from "web.xml". Now, some characters with diacritics are rendered properly (for example constant strings like menu entries: "Présentation"). But I created a new user "Léa": I entered "Léa" in a input type text HTML element and submitted the form in which was the input element. Now "Léa" is rendered as "Léa" when I need to dipslay it either back in an input or as text in a "div". The filter that I put in 2015 in the Webapp (I don't really remember how, I guess I had the same problem at the time) prevented such things from happening. Please help.

That is why I first recommended that you remove the whole filter section from your web.xml, and check what happens. Display some pages which /should/contain some text in non-English languages (meaning with "diacritics" like è, é, à, ü, ö, ..) and if they display correctly, there is nothing else to do. Only if you /do/get a wrong display of some of that data, then you should come back here, and try to describe what is wrong. And we could then help you find the root cause. That would be better than trying to apply a patch over a patch over a patch..

Hello,
Thank you for your answers.
I changed /* to
*.jsp I also un-commented the line:
servletResponse.setContentType("text/html; charset=" +
Finals.S_CHARSET);
It looks like the problem is solved.

Shall I leave *.jsp as it is, or can
you suggest another pattern?
There is a better solution:
1. Delete the files and removed references to it in web.xml
2. Edit your JSP files and properly set the content-type and encoding
in the @page directive at the top of the file.
