I have Geoserver 2.4.0 (war on Tomcat7) installed on Ubuntu 12.04. I've tried to set character encoding to UTF-8 but åäö is still shown wrong when i save the Contact information form. Please help.

in WEB-INF/web.xml I have:
   <filter>
    <filter-name>Set Character Encoding</filter-name>
    <filter-class>org.vfny.geoserver.filters.SetCharacterEncodingFilter</filter-class>
    <init-param>
      <param-name>encoding</param-name>
      <param-value>UTF-8</param-value>
    </init-param>
  </filter>
     <filter-mapping>
      <filter-name>Set Character Encoding</filter-name>
      <url-pattern>/*</url-pattern>
    </filter-mapping>

In Tomcat server.xml I have:
<Connector port="8080" protocol="HTTP/1.1"
               connectionTimeout="20000"
               URIEncoding="UTF-8"
               redirectPort="8443" />
