Signing Bouncy Castle or third party provider's jar file with signtool

843811Apr 13 2004 — edited Apr 16 2004
Hi,

I am using JDK 1.4.2 and bouncy castle as a provider for RSA.

It worked fine until recently when my company asked me to compile and build the jar from the source code from bouncy castle, instead of using the binary version provided in their website.

But I only have a certificate obtained from Verisign. So I used signtool 1.3 from netscape to sign the jar file, which could be verified by jarsigner. But when use this one signed by my company's certificate. it didn't work. The exception is

java.security.NoSuchAlgorithmException: Cannot find any provider supporting RSA/
ECB/PKCS1Padding
at javax.crypto.Cipher.getInstance(DashoA6275)

When I switch back to the signed jar file provided by bouncy castle, everything worked ok again.

It looks that jar file is not recognized properly.

Can anyone tell me if I can use the signtool to sign the provider's jar file? Or I have to sign with jarsigner?

Thanks for the help.
