Adding <Resources allowLinking="true" /> to conf/context.xml inside <Context> fixed it for me.

We found that in our case, this error was appearing because the default character set in our OS was not set to UTF-8. To resolve, we added the following lines to the TOMCAT_HOME/bin/setenv.sh script:

export LC_ALL="en_US.utf-8"
export LANG="$LC_ALL"
