BouncyCastle install

Where is your bctest-jdk15-138.jar ? Make sure you're in the same directory...

I am also running into the same problem. Getting the message in notepad:

java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/bouncycastle/crypto/DataLengthException
at org.bouncycastle.crypto.test.RegressionTest.(Unknown Source)
Exception in thread "main"

The test file bctest-jdk15-140.jar is located in the BCTestDir Directory where I am running the command. Version of Java I am running is JDK 5.0 Update 11. Any suggestions?

Did you apply BC to both JDK and JRE? I usually just do both of them to avoid any confusions. You may also wanna check under command prompt.

which java

and see if it's using the correct path for your JDK5\bin\java.exe

Did apply BC to JDK & JRE under the java.security file located jre/lib/security and /lib/security.

Here are the providers and their preference orders:

List of providers and their preference orders (see above):
#
security.provider.1=sun.security.provider.Sun
security.provider.2=sun.security.rsa.SunRsaSign
security.provider.3=com.sun.net.ssl.internal.ssl.Provider
security.provider.4=com.sun.crypto.provider.SunJCE
security.provider.5=sun.security.jgss.SunProvider
security.provider.6=com.sun.security.sasl.Provider
security.provider.7=org.bouncycastle.jce.provider.BouncyCastleProvider

When I do "which java" the correct path is C:/JDK5/bin/java.exe.

The only thing I can think of is moving the order of the java.security file. Also, one last thing I did to see if it resolved it. I tried Java Version 5 Release 16 but get the same error. Wasn't sure if the JCE files made a difference or not.

Disregard my last. I got it working. Just having a problem now with the regression testing on WAS. There are two errors in the results of the test. Any ideas?

CertTest: error setting up keys - java.security.NoSuchProviderException: no such provider: SUN

and

SlotTwo: BC provider not returned for DESede/CTR/NoPadding got IBMJCE

Should I be concerned about these?

The timestamp on the WAS/JDK JCE Provider should be 6/5/2008 11:06am for the 2 files, (local_policy.jar/US_export_policy.jar). Do you have the latest one? I just ran the crypto.out and I see no error on my WAS FP17.

Looking at the policy files for WAS, shows 9/29 which is when I downloaded the files. The size shows 3.63 KB (3,726 bytes). Does this match up with yours?

local policy 3726, us export policy 3715

Jimmy,

I was able to get it working. Thank you.

Regression test to check the JDK configuration works fine without any errors. But while doing the regression test for WAS - there was no response from java.exe. I ran the following command
%WAS_HOME%/java/bin/java -cp bctest-jdk15-139.jar org.bouncycastle.crypto.test.RegressionTest

I have placed the bctest-jdk15-139.jar & bcprov-jdk15-139.jar files in jre/lib/ext folder.

I have the latest local_policy.jar and US_export_policy.jar from IBM JCE. I have setup the java.security settings as per the documentation.

java.security is made like below,,

security.provider.1=com.ibm.crypto.provider.IBMJCE
security.provider.2=com.ibm.jsse.IBMJSSEProvider
security.provider.3=com.ibm.jsse2.IBMJSSEProvider2
security.provider.4=org.bouncycastle.jce.provider.BouncyCastleProvider
security.provider.5=com.ibm.security.jgss.IBMJGSSProvider
security.provider.6=com.ibm.security.cert.IBMCertPath
security.provider.7=com.ibm.crypto.pkcs11.provider.IBMPKCS11
security.provider.8=com.ibm.security.cmskeystore.CMSProvider
security.provider.9=com.ibm.security.jgss.mech.spnego.IBMSPNEGO

could any one help me out in configuring the bouncy castle in WAS?
