Installing JCE 1.2.2 in J2SE 1.3.1 enviroment

In response to an issue involving APC Powerchute 6 on a Windows 2000 server, we are attempting to follow the recommendation provided below. However, after downloading Java Cryptography Extension (JCE) 1.2.2 and unzipping the package, I cannot follow the instructions for installing the new JCE. Can someone please dummy the instructions down for me?

In order for PowerChute Business Edition to remain functional, users must
upgrade to any version of 7.x. Due to expiration of the Sun Java Runtime
Environment certificate, versions 6.x of PowerChute Business Edition will
cease to operate normally as of July 27, 2005. Failure to upgrade will
result in PowerChute Business Edition no longer providing monitoring and
************READ THIS CAREFULLY THIS SAYS THAT YOU DO NOT NEED TO RESTART THE COMPUTER*****************
After lengthy reasearch by an associate, here is the problem and the fix:
I researched the Microsoft and APC (and SUN) site and found the REAL cause of the problem.
Here it is:
1. Impact
The Java Cryptography Extension (JCE) 1.2.1 is an optional package for J2SE 1.2.x and 1.3.x that provides a framework and implementations for encryption, key generation, key agreement, and Message Authentication Code (MAC) algorithms. The digital certificate that was used to sign the JCE 1.2.1 jar files will expire on July 27, 2005, after which the product will no longer function.
2. Contributing Factors
This issue can occur in the following release:
Java Cryptography Extension (JCE) 1.2.1 (for J2SE 1.2.x and 1.3.x)
Notes:
JCE 1.2.1 is at "End of Service Life" (EOSL), and is no longer supported. JCE 1.2.1 was EOSL'ed in 2002 when JCE 1.2.2 was released.
The JCE that is integrated into J2SE 1.4 and later is not affected by this issue. This Sun Alert is specific to JCE 1.2.1, which is an optional package for use with J2SE 1.2.x. and 1.3.x (JCE 1.2.1 is not bundled with J2SE 1.2.x and 1.3.x).
3. Symptoms
After the expiration date, code calling into JCE 1.2.1 will fail with symptoms similar to the following:
[xxxxxx@xxxxxx] 258 >java BlowfishKey
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.ExceptionInInitializerError:
java.lang.SecurityException: Cannot set up certs for trusted CAs
at javax.crypto.b.<clinit>([DashoPro-V1.2-120198])
at javax.crypto.KeyGenerator.getInstance([DashoPro-V1.2-120198] )
Solution Summary Top
4. Relief/Workaround
There is no workaround. Please see the "Resolution" section below.
5. Resolution
This issue is addressed in the following releases:
Java Cryptography Extension (JCE) 1.2.2 (for J2SE 1.2.x and 1.3.x)
which is available at:
http://java.sun.com/products/jce/index-122.html
JCE in J2SE 1.4 and later
which is available at:
http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4.2/download.html and http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.5.0/download.jsp

Hi Shakee,
go here http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4.2/download.html
scroll down, load the unlimited strength jce package and read the instructions (you just have to replace some jars in your filesystem)
good luck,

Installing JCE 1.2

Hi!
I have j2sdk1.4.1 installed on my machine and I've just downloaded JCE1.2. Now I would like to use this unlimited strength version of JCE instead of the JCE that comes alongwith j2sdk1.4.1. How can I do this?
Please help asap.
Thank you.
Sincerely,
Shakeel

System error after installing 10.4.6 Update and J2SE 5.0 Release 4

Hi,
I just installed OS X 10.4.6 update and J2SE 5.o Release 4 and the system doesn't start any more. I get a black screen which says:
[date] [my computer name] getty:/dev/console: Operation not supported by device
Any suggestions?
I will try to start from CD (when I am home later), but first I need to eject the DVD, which is still in the drive. How to do this when the system does not start?
Thanks,
Ulrike

Hi Ulrike,
I will try to start from CD (when I am home later),
but first I need to eject the DVD, which is still in
the drive. How to do this when the system does not
start?
All CD/DVD drives that come installed in a Mac should allow you to eject the CD/DVD tray. Check your owner's manual--the instructions on how to eject the tray are usually given there. For example, on some PowerBook models you had to gently insert a paper clip into one side of the loading slot and push. On the DVD drive in my PowerMac there is a small hole through which I can instert a paper clip.
As for what is causing your problems, I don't know. From what I've gathered, however, installing the combo update (~140 megs) is more reliable than the incremental one (~60 megs). Booting from an external drive helps, too. You might try that.

I just installed JCE on my new CF10 and now can't login to administrator, what am I doing wrong?

I have CF 10,284568 installed on SUSe 12.2 with Java 1.7.0_15 64bit. When I swap out the two JCE files, restart Coldfusion, I can no longer login to the Administrator. To be more specific, it appears session management isn't working. If I login using a bad username/password pair I get an error, if I login with the correct pair I get returned to the login screen without any error. Additionally, none of my datasources work (MySQL ). If I swap out the original (local policy and US export policy jars) and restart everything works fine.
What am I doing wrong? Do I need to run something in the CF bin or reinstall to get this to work?

I tried to repro the Issue :
Here are my findings ,
Case 1 )
CF with Java 1.7.0_25
On top of it Install UnlimitedJCEPolicy JDK7
Restart Server
Everything works fine
Case 2 )
CF with Java 1.6.0_29
On top of it Install UnlimitedJCEPolicy 6
Restart Server
Everything works fine
Case 3 )
CF with Java 1.6.0_29
On top of it Install UnlimitedJCEPolicy JDK7 ( Basically wrong version of Policy Files )
Unable to open administrator !! And DB’s won’t work as mentioned above
Case 4 )
CF with Java 1.7.0_25
On top of it Install UnlimitedJCEPolicy 6 ( Basically wrong version of Policy Files )
Unable to open administrator !! And DB’s won’t work as mentioned above
Can you please check if you are applying the right version of Policy Files ? Or Am I missing something here ? Can you also try with the latest Java and latest CF Update ?

Help needed installing JCE on RHEL4

Hello friends,
I have downloaded the jce1_2_2.zip file. Need help on installing it. J2sdk 1.4.X is installed but still I am getting error like Unallotable Package JCE. Thats why I downloaded this file and now dont know how to install it. Even the instrauctions I found are clear.
Please suggest me.
Its urgent.
Thanks

I'm not sure on that model as I haven't seen one so don't know how the bios works. You'll have to try using some of the arrow keys to see how to move the CD to above the hard drive. When it boots up it have an F12 option (at the same time you see the F2 prompt to enter the bios) that takes you to the Boot Manager Menu, but like I said, they don't sell that model over here so I've never seen it so I don't know if it's there or not. You'll need to ask over in the Euro forum where they sell it how that works.
If you don't post your COMPLETE model number it's very difficult to assist you. Please try to post in complete sentences with punctuation, capitals, and correct spelling. Toshiba does NOT provide any direct support in these forums. All support is User to User in their spare time.

Installing Sun Mobility Studio 6 using J2SE 1.5

The installer cannot find or recognize the J2SE 1.5 as a suitable JVM.
I have the (jstudio_M04q3-win-ml.exe) version of mobilit studio.
Also tried -is:javahome option but doesn't work.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Hi!
I had the same problem.
You have to download JRE 1.4.x version and J2SE 1.4.xx version.
Good luck.

J2SE v 1.4.2_04 SDK on Linux (ubuntu) install problem

I've seen this question posted on this forum a number of times but no-one seems to know the answer. I would love an answer to this as have already spent far too much time trying to sort it out.
I am trying to install the j2me mobile development kit: J2SE v 1.4.2_04 SDK with NetBeans 3.6 Bundle, on Linux ubuntu ...
I download the file from this site ....
I follow the instructions on the site:
I do the chmod and this works ok
I type ./j2sdk-1_4_2_04-nb-3_6-bin-linux.bin ( this is the instruction from Sun)
and then get the error message:
bash: j2sdk-1_4_2_04-nb-3_6-bin-linux.bin: command not found
What's the solution? Any ideas?
thanks

try :
sh jdkblahblhabl.bin
But there is a debian way to install it see links at http://rzr.online.fr/q/Java

Any way to confirm JCE is installed?

Hello...a consulting partner installed JDK for a system of ours and was required to also install JCE. I need to validate that install. Any way to confirm whether JCE was installed?

Well, the javax.crypto.Cipher class in included in JCE, so if it's not present, it means JCE is not there. Try this
try {
Class.forName("javax.crypto.Cipher");
} catch (Exception e) {
System.err.println("Sorry, but there's no JCE");
}In fact, if you are using Sun's JRE equal or higher than 1.4, JCE is already included.

J2EE or J2SE Install?

I'm trying to updating my JBuilder JDK but don't know which JDK to install?
Do I install the J2EE JDK or the J2SE JDK?
Does the J2EE JDK have access to all the classes that the J2SE JDK has?

So, you have J2EE SDK already installed, and you want to use another J2SE version that you installed separately, right?
To do that, you should update <j2EE_install_dir>/config/asenv.bat file. Variable AS_JAVA should point to new J2SE installation directory. Then, you also need to change the J2SE installation used by default server domain - easiest way to do that is to use admin console and follow instructions available here:

JCE Based Java Stored Procedure in Oracle 8i

I have a Java class which is created based on JCE 1.2.1. I need to call this Java class from PL/SQL. Therefore, I want to create a Java stored procedure based on this Java class. I just read some topics in this forum and it seems that many people are unable to have JCE correctly setup on Oracle8 JVM.
My question is how to configure the JVM of Oracle8i to use the JCE?
I am using Oracle 8.1.6 on unix.
Thanks,

unfortunately, for JCE to work, you need a fix to OracleJVM that we will be providing in the next major release
Thanks for your reply.
The JCE optional package could be installed on SUN's JDK 1.2.x or higher. Since Oracle 8.1.6's JServer support SUN's JDK 1.2.1. Therefore, in theory, JCE could be installed for Oracle 8.1.6 or higher.
However, the cofiguration of JCE on the JVM requires the modification of Java security policy file. I followed the JCE's installation guide but it did not work on Oracle's JServer.
My question is: How to install JCE 1.2.1 on Oracle 8.1.6? Is it possible to configure the JVM of Oracle 8.1.x to use JCE? If yes, how?
Thanks,
JCE is an optional package even in J2SE 1.3 - it is required in J2SE 1.4
OracleJVM will be J2SE 1.4 compliant in the nest major release and we plan to support JCE

JCE (in J2SDK1.4) expire 27-7-2005 ?

Hi all.
I'm using JDK 1.4.1_06 at my customer site.
They got to know that the Sun jce 1.2.1 component is going to expire after 27-7-2005.
JDK 1.4.1_06 include jce.jar, but this file name have not version.
Please tell me
Is jce.jar's version 1.2.1 or 1.2.2 ?
JDK 1.4.1_06 (and JDK1.4_x) is safe ?
how to find out the JCE version in this JDK package?
how to check jce.jar's expire date?
