Symptoms
When executing a java stored procedure using encryption provided by a third party provider the following error is returned:
java.security.NoSuchAlgorithmException: Cannot find any provider supporting RC4
at javax.crypto.Cipher.getInstance(DashoA6275)
at testEncrypt.testRSA(testEncrypt:46)
or , if you explicitly specify the provider in the call to KeyGenerator.getInstance (in this case BC for BouncyCastle):
java.security.NoSuchProviderException: JCE cannot authenticate the provider BC
at javax.crypto.SunJCE_b.a(DashoA6275)
at javax.crypto.SunJCE_b.a(DashoA6275)
at javax.crypto.KeyGenerator.getInstance(DashoA6275)
at TestEncryption.encrypt(TestEncryption:57)
Caused by: java.lang.NullPointerException
at javax.crypto.SunJCE_d.a(DashoA6275)
at javax.crypto.SunJCE_d.verify(DashoA6275)
Changes
You have loaded the provider's .jar file using loadjava in order that the procedure compiles correctly and can execute the program from the command line with the provider's .jar file in the class path.
