Hi Christopher Schultz,

I did not mean that the browser is throwing an error. My problem is that in
9.0.13 tomcat's error page is shown instead of my error page. I have given
error page location in web.xml. error.jsp is located in the root of my
webapp.

I know that if I add '^' in relaxedquerychars there will be no error thrown
by the server. I have no characters in my relaxedquerychars. In 8.5.35 the
requested is rejected and tomcat's error page with exception is not shown,
but it does in 9.0.13.

I will attach both the screenshots of 9.0.13 and 8.5.35. You kindly check
and let me know.

Regards,
Melvin A
