java.security.NoSuchAlgorithmException exception while encrypting the input

[Former Member]

Hi Experts,

While encrypting the input message using public key we are getting the below error exception .

" java.security.NoSuchAlgorithmException: No such algorithm: RSA/ECB/PKCS1Padding" .

Here is the small piece of code we used for encryption .

inKey = PGPUtil.getDecoderStream(inKey); // inKey contains public key info

PGPPublicKeyRingCollection pkCol = new PGPPublicKeyRingCollection(inKey);

Iterator it = pkCol.getKeyRings();

while (it.hasNext()) {pkRing = (PGPPublicKeyRing) it.next();

Iterator pkIt = pkRing.getPublicKeys();

while (pkIt.hasNext()) {

temp = (PGPPublicKey) pkIt.next();

if (temp.isEncryptionKey()) {

pubkey = temp;

break; } }

out = new DataOutputStream(out);

ByteArrayOutputStream bOut = new ByteArrayOutputStream();

PGPCompressedDataGenerator comData = new PGPCompressedDataGenerator(PGPCompressedDataGenerator.ZIP);

PGPLiteralDataGenerator lData = new PGPLiteralDataGenerator();

OutputStream pOut = lData.open(comData.open(bOut),PGPLiteralData.BINARY, "", inputString.length(),new Date());

pOut.write(inputString.getBytes());

lData.close();

comData.close();

cPk.close(); out.close();

PGPEncryptedDataGenerator cPk = new PGPEncryptedDataGenerator(PGPEncryptedDataGenerator.CAST5, new SecureRandom(),"BC");

cPk.addMethod(pubkey);

byte[] bytes = bOut.toByteArray();

OutputStream cOut = cPk.open(out, bytes.length); //<-- Here we are getting the above exception

cOut.write(bytes);

cPk.close();

out.close();

Could any one plz guide us ???

This exception usually means that the chosen enc algorithm (CAST5) is not available on the Bouncy Castle provider. Therefore, please try:

1. Update the JDK to latest hotfix. For example, if using JDK 1.4.2_11, install 1.4.2_30.

2. Apply Sarah's recommendation of updating the policy files;

3. Change the BC provider. Try using SUN's provider, for example.

Hi Sarah/Lucas,

We are using below java version

java version "1.5.0_14"

Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition (build 5.1.027)

SAP Java 64-Bit Server VM (build 5.1.027, Dec 12 2008 04:31:57 - 51_REL - optU - aix ppc64 - bas2:113000 (mixed mode))

u2022Below mentioned jar files are downloaded from http://www.bouncycastle.org/latest_releases.html

u2022bcpg-jdk15-146 , bcprov-ext-jdk15-146, bcprov-jdk15-146

As you guys suggested we have checked for security file access .

There is no restriction to any algorithm.

1. cat default_US_export.policy

// Manufacturing policy file.

grant {

// There is no restriction to any algorithms.

permission javax.crypto.CryptoAllPermission;

};

1. pwd

/usr/java14_64/jre/lib/security

We are getting the below exception while we are doing encryption.Could you please suggest?

At this below step it is going to catch block and throwing above exception

OutputStream cOut = cPk.open(out, bytes.length);// Return an output stream which will encrypt the data as it is written to it.

Thanks in Advance
