Work from command line but did not work from JSP call

Question

I have a test class that should perform Triple DES. When I run it from command line work ok, but when runs from JSP it give me an error:
Exception:
======================================
javax.crypto.IllegalBlockSizeException: Input length not multiple of 8 bytes
put 3 check points inside the code, and run it from command line and here is the result:
C:\Documents and Settings\salasadi\Desktop\DigitalMailer>java TDESStringEncrypto
r 123456781234567812345678 "CID=103&A
this is pass 3
this is pass 1
this is pass 2
here is the class:
import javax.crypto.*;
import javax.crypto.spec.*;
import java.security.*;
import java.io.*;
public class TDESStringEncryptor
static final int DATA_STRING_LENGTH = 64;
public static void main(String[] args)
try
TDESStringEncryptor enc = new TDESStringEncryptor();
String value = enc.Encrypt(args[0], args[1]);
System.err.println(value);
catch (Exception ex)
System.err.println(ex);
public String Encrypt(String inkey, String data)
throws Exception
// convert key to byte array and get it into a key object
byte[] rawkey = inkey.getBytes();
DESedeKeySpec keyspec = new DESedeKeySpec(rawkey);
SecretKeyFactory keyfactory = SecretKeyFactory.getInstance("DESede");
SecretKey key = keyfactory.generateSecret(keyspec);
Cipher cipher = Cipher.getInstance("DESede/ECB/NoPadding");
cipher.init(Cipher.ENCRYPT_MODE, key);
byte[] out = cipher.doFinal( padString(data).getBytes( ) );
System.out.println("this is pass 1");
return byteArrayToHexString( out );
private String byteArrayToHexString(byte in[])
byte ch = 0x00;
int i = 0;
if ( in == null || in.length <= 0 )
return null;
String pseudo[] = {"0", "1", "2", "3", "4", "5", "6", "7", "8",
"9", "A", "B", "C", "D", "E", "F"};
StringBuffer out = new StringBuffer( in.length * 2 );
while ( i < in.length )
ch = (byte) ( in[i] & 0xF0 );
ch = (byte) ( ch >>> 4 );
ch = (byte) ( ch & 0x0F );
out.append( pseudo[ (int) ch] );
ch = (byte) ( in[i] & 0x0F );
out.append( pseudo[ (int) ch] );
i++;
String rslt = new String( out );
System.out.println("this is pass 2");
return rslt;
private String padString( String s )
StringBuffer str = new StringBuffer( s );
int strLength = str.length();
for ( int i = 0; i <= DATA_STRING_LENGTH ; i ++ )
if ( i > strLength ) str.append( ' ' );
System.out.println("this is pass 3");
return str.toString();
And here is the JSP call:
TDESStringEncryptor encryptz = new TDESStringEncryptor();
String cryptodata1 = encryptz.Encrypt(Keyz,cryptodata);
Thanks

Please use [ code ] tags when posting code.
Please indicate the line that causes the exception.
Please indicate what Keyz and cryptodata is.
