Two things to try.

1. Have you enabled strong encryption on the server? This is required before you can use SSL.

2. Deployable proxies may be preferable for message based security over stand alone.

From the looks of the error I would guess you have not enabled strong encryption. Please see the SAP Help on how to do so.

Marc is correct, the crypto software is either not installed correctly or the crypto provider has not been registered.

Please check for the following:

1) You have installed the " Java Cryptography Extension (JCE) Unlimited Strength Jurisdiction Policy Files 1.4.2" (for a Sun JDK see http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4.2/download.html (last item on page))

2) You have installed the SAP JAVA CryptographicToolkits

and included iaik_jce.jar in your classpath

3) You need to register the cryptographic provider. This can be either as JDK configuration in a file java.security or dynamically. To register IAIK dynamically, use:

import iaik.security.provider.IAIK;

IAIK.addAsJDK14Provider(true);
