IAIK and NoSuchAlgorithmException

[tanya]

Hi,

I have been using IAIK library iaik-jce (http://jcewww.iaik.at/) for encryption/decryption. The version of JBoss is 3.2.3 and jdk1.4.2_03. The code is executing fine when I run my application without JBoss but when I use it from withing EJBs, JBoss AS generates the exception...

Class=ParsePK12, Method=decrypt, Message=java.security.NoSuchAlgorithmException: Algorithm PKCS#12-MAC not available

The IAIK people say this exception is caused when unlimited strength policy files are not placed in the path %JDK%jre/lib/security/
But I have installed these security files in the above path.

The exception is caused by the decrypt() method of the class PKCS12.

Anybody have a clue to it?

Thanks,
Tanya

It would seem the IAIK security provider is not seen as installed. What does a code block within the EJB show as the registered security providers?

import java.security.Provider;
import java.security.Security;

 {
 Provider[] providers = Security.getProviders();
 for(int n = 0; n < providers.length; n ++)
 {
 Provider p = providers[n];
 System.out.println(p);
 }
 }
