Hi all,
I faced with problem.
We are using Vaadin 7.7.9 and Tomcat 8.5
When URL to our application consists of non ASCII characters i get URISyntaxException which is thrown by Vaadin source code.
Sample URL: http://localhost:8080/myApp/ывапывап - contains cyrillic characters and there is no prefix before this incorrect view name.
javax.servlet.ServletException: com.vaadin.server.ServiceException: java.lang.RuntimeException: Invalid location URI received from client

The problem exists only for IE browser.
In my case it was found using IE 11. For other browsers this can’t be reproduced.
I found this issue: https://vaadin.com/forum/#!/thread/4440607/14473146 wich was not resolved. It relates to this ticket https://dev.vaadin.com/ticket/16665 which is still open.
I found that problem occurs in Page init() method, because parameter “v-loc” is not encoded in UTF-8 (URI → IRI).
In attachments you can find traffic that was captured by tcpdump on server. I will attach some screenshots from debugger.
Can you please look into this issue and suggest any solution/workaround? Any help will be appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
P.S. Tick on “Send UTF-8 query strings” in IE did not affect (as described here: https://blogs.msdn.microsoft.com/ieinternals/2014/04/22/unicode-in-url-changes-for-ie11/)
