Thanks a lot Shawn! You were right, I didn't think to look into Tomcat. I enabled UTF8 in tomcat and everything works now, Thanks

It runs in a servlet container, like Jetty, Tomcat, etc. The container must also be set up to use the UTF8 character set. For interaction with Solr, your browser must also be set up for UTF8, which in some cases may mean your OS needs to have its locale settings changed. Whatever source of index data you are using must also provide UTF8 data to Solr. For example, if your installation of Solr is using the dataimport handler, you must also set up your data source as UTF8. Thanks, Shawn
