EAP 6 reads multipart/form-data with incorrect encoding

Solution Verified - Updated

Environment

  • JBoss Enterprise Application Platform (EAP) 6.x

Issue

  • We post some UTF-8 multipart/form-data to JBoss. Parameters are not read by JBoss with the correct encoding. For instance, the below results in garbled text read from the request parameter:
request.setCharacterEncoding("UTF-8");
request.getParts()
String text = request.getParameter("sometextfield");
