I also had the same error in my project with Tomcat 8 and 9. The easiest but less optimal solution was to change to Tomcat 7, but when this version of Tomcat is deprecated or updated on the server I will have to go find all the commas and replace them in the cookie setting.

The character 0x44 is comma character and it is not allowed in cookies:

This string is a sequence of characters excluding semi-colon, comma and white space.

The reference comes from here.
