Hey Mark, Thanks for your response... I have tried to isolate the issue if it is being caused by Apache/Mod_jk/Tomcat. Firstly I tried a request to standlone apache with customize d header having Japanese characters. The requested page displays the headers in the request. To my surprise Apache is not dealing with Japanese characters correctly and replacing them with some junk value. For example I addedミが完たソ税一使饅漢社氏ソ圧user1 in the request header and wht I received was ~ª®½\Åêgé\¿Ð¿³user1.
Also to add the same thing works when make request to apache configured to reverse proxy. Can any one provide explanation to that?
