As fas as no final conclusion made, I'd like to share my expierence in the same situation. Here one can find more discussion.

I my case, I have dev environment under the windows on local pc including local MySQL. Production env - Centos 6, MySQL, Tomcat 6 behind Apache.

In dev environment - everything was o'k, but on production - no. The only thing that help me - was set autoreconnect=true&useUnicode=true&characterEncoding=UTF-8 additionally to recommendations both for Tomcat URIEncoding='UTF-8'

So, the problem was in correct settings java Driver for MySQL.
