Hello Dave I've got the problem fixed. Everything described in the book seems to be working well except the typo 'utf-' in the url attribute of Context.xml, that needed to be changed to 'utf-8'.
url="jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/rollerdb? autoReconnect=true&useUnicode=true& characterEncoding=utf-&mysqlEncoding=utf8" Thanks for reply.
