The container does not complain about the encoding itself, only about
the fact
that you are trying to set the encoding too late, when it is impossible
for the container
to honor it.
See the javadocs of ServletRequest.setCharacterEncoding():
This method must be called prior to reading request parameters
or reading input using getReader(). Otherwise, it has no effect.
The container issues a warning to let you know that your call to
ServletRequest.setCharacterEncoding() has no effect, because one of
the above conditions is met.
You should move your call to ServletRequest.setCharacterEncoding()
before you acquire an input reader from the request, and before
you read any request parameters.
