[Jsdsi-users] NoSuchAlgorithmException: MD5/RSA/PKCS#1 Signature not available in Load Identity

[Satish V. <sat...@gm...>]

Hi group,

I am planning to use JSDSI for my thesis Role-based access control in
federated environments.
I was learning how this works with the SDSI Certificate Utility that came
along with the jsdsi download.

I encountered a problem while trying to load a identity.

Stack trace:
java.security.NoSuchAlgorithmException: MD5/RSA/PKCS#1 Signature not
available
    at java.security.Signature.getInstance(Signature.java:208)
    at sdsi.control.SDSIMainFrame.loadIdentity_Action(SDSIMainFrame.java
:1151)
    at sdsi.control.SDSIMainFrame.actionPerformed(SDSIMainFrame.java:805)
   .......<snip>.......

Apparently this line caused it:
    Signature sign = Signature.getInstance("MD5/RSA/PKCS#1");

I think this algorithms implementation in available in the Cryptix library,
but I am not sure why this is not picking it up

What is that I am doing wrong?
Any help is appreciated.
I hope this group helps me all the way along my work.

Thank you,
