The above filter does not change anything about the output of your webapp: it only changes the way request bodies are interpreted. > So my questions: > > 1) Will tomcat properly display the characters that were stored prior to > the migration? New data is displaying properly. Tomcat pretty much just moves bytes around. As long as your webapp does not cross-code any text, everything should be fine. Is your database configured to store data in UTF-8? Is your JDBC driver configured to speak UTF-8? How about your JSPs, etc.: are they configured to emit text in UTF-8 encoding? > 2) Are some other settings required to view the old data without seeing > some junk characters? You must have changed something else to make your old data look broken.
