Issue

Response character encoding is broken in JSF application running on JBoss EAP 8.0.3+

Resolution

This issue has been reporeted as This content is not included.JBEAP-28883, which will be fixed in JBoss EAP 8.0.7+ and 8.1.0+.

As a workaround until the fixed version is released, you can specify default character encoding (like UTF-8) explicitly as default-encoding attribute (undefined by default) of <servlet-container> in undertow subsystem. For example:

/subsystem=undertow/servlet-container=default:write-attribute(name="default-encoding", value="utf-8")    

            <servlet-container name="default" default-encoding="UTF-8"> <!-- add default-encoding="UTF-8" -->
                <jsp-config/>
                <websockets/>
            </servlet-container>
