Encoding request URI
Hi
I have a problem sending UTF-8 encoded request URI to tomcat. I am always getting Bad request from tomcat.
Charset is set to UTF-8 in the request. My connectors in server.xml have URIEncoding="UTF-8" set.
I am using tomcat 8.0.11 on windows x64.
I would appreciate any help.

If they are not allowed then you must url encode them.
http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc3986#section-2.1
I believe commons HTTP client can help with this.

As it should. UTF-8 is not going to help here, it has a different purpose.

Hi
Hope it will format this time.
I am not using any web browser to execute requests. I do use latest http client component from apache.
My request URI contains characters that are not allowed in a URI. Some examples are[]"space .etc
Therefore I send UTF-8 encoded request URI and it fails. But if I ONLY encode not allowed characters, it works fine.
Then I have to decode when processing the request inside a servlet.
The problem with this approach is that I only encode some characters. This will not work one day I get another unallowed character that's not on my list.
My request looks like:
/mtasxdms/simservs.ngn.etsi.org/users/sip:abc@vodafon.com/simservs.xml/~~/simservs/communication-diversion/NoReplyTimer/simservs/communication-diversion/cp:ruleset/cp:rule[@id="cfnrc"]/cp:conditions/mmt-serv:valid-periods/mmt-serv:valid-days/mmt-serv:day?xmlns(cp=urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:common-policy) xmlns(mmt-serv=http://schemas.vodafon.com/mmtel/services)
