Re: [Cryptix-users] NoSuchAlgorithmException from Tomcat?

[Moshe S. <mo...@sp...>]

Thanks for your suggestion, Geoff.  Unfortunately my web application is
running on a shared Tomcat server and I don't have control over the
order of the security providers.  I tried re-inserting OpenPGP as the #1
provider in my code but this didn't seem to have any effect on the
order.

There also doesn't seem to be any way to programatically choose a
specific provider when reading a KeyStore - perhaps this is a weakness
of the API.

Still, though, from the stacktrace clearly the OpenPGP classes are
getting used - note the top line in the stacktrace:

at cryptix.openpgp.algorithm.PGPElGamal.(PGPElGamal.java:94)

it is specifically the PGPElGamal class which seems to be throwing the
NoSuchAlgorithmException!

As far as the VM, when I tested standalone I used the same VM as Tomcat
uses.  Beyond that, I don't know any other configuration issues which
could affect this problem.

Any other ideas?
