Thank you, Jan.
My servlet the Throwable is raised calls this code
response.setContentType("text/html;charset=UTF-8");
response.setCharacterEncoding("UTF-8");
at the begin of 'processRequest' method, BEFORE ServletException throws.
After i have refactored my servlet-code UTF-symbols o error.jsp began to be displayed correctly.
WBR, Dmitry
