========================================================
I have run into as well using JBoss 4.0.3SP1 (and 4.0.4GA).
In my Web Applications, I can login with English usernames and passwords just fine.
But when I try to login with a Russian or Chineese username, the login always fails.
From the tracing I've done, it seems the username is getting
converted to ISO-8859-1, and that's why it's failing.
I've done all the "standard" things to make our pages UTF-8, and this does
work on every page except the login page. Something about "j_security_check" is
ignoring UTF-8 and forcing a conversion to "ISO-8859-1".

----------------------------------
My Solution:
I am a chinese and I am writing a website for chinese. every page in my web site is of
utf-8. I use form-based authentication and
org.jboss.security.auth.spi.DatabaseServerLoginModule to authenticate my users. When some
of my users create their accounts with chinese characters in their login id, they
can't login because DatabaseServerLoginModule can't get the correctly-encoded
username. So I debug into jboss authentication module. I tried to filter all request to
use UTF-8 ,but I failed because authectiation request can't be filtered by the filters
defined in /WEB-INF/web.xml. I find that the DatabaseServerLoginModule can't get the
encoded username corretly only because the username can't be correctly fechted from
request by org.apache.catalina.authenticator.FormAuthenticator. So I need to configure
org.apache.catalina.authenticator.FormAuthenticator in order to get utf-8 encoded
username.
i find the configuration here:
http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-5.5-doc/config/valve.html
I add a context.xml to /WEB-INF/ and deploy to my jboss server. Now the username can be
fetched correctly now and my users can use chinese characters in their login id;
my context.xml:
<Context>
<Valve
className="org.apache.catalina.authenticator.FormAuthenticator"
characterEncoding="UTF-8" />
</Context>
my jboss is 4.20.GA

Resolution: Won't Fix
It is a configuration issue as indicated by an user:
Please include the characterEncoding in WEB-INF/context.xml for the authenticator you
need.
<Valve className="org.apache.catalina.authenticator.FormAuthenticator"
characterEncoding="UTF-8" />
