Are you using the request dumper valve? This will cause decoding problems, as describe here: http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-5.5-doc/config/valve.html
The Request Dumper Valve is a useful tool in debugging interactions with a client application (or browser) that is sending HTTP requests to your Tomcat-based server. When configured, it causes details about each request processed by its associated Engine, Host, or Context to be logged to the Logger that corresponds to that container. WARNING: Using this valve has side-effects. The output from this valve includes any parameters included with the request. The parameters will be decoded using the default platform encoding. Any subsequent calls to request.setCharacterEncoding() within the web application will have no effect.

It seems it does decode all %XX as an index in US-ASCII table. How can i change it? I want tomcat to decode it as either ISO-8859-1 either UTF-8 (any of those are ok, but obviously us-assci is not because of accentuated characters in request).
