I am getting StreamCorruptedException

[Joseph Bashir]

I have a .jsp file with method encrypt() to encrypt a string. This method works fine on my computer but when I upload it on the server, it throws this exception:

java.io.StreamCorruptedException

Can someone please help me solve this problem.

Here is the code to encrypt the string:

public String  encrypt(String s,JspWriter out)throws Exception {
String s2 = "";  
try {
ResourceBundle resourceBndl = ResourceBundle.getBundle("resources.ApplicationResources", Locale.getDefault(), this.getClass().getClassLoader());
                //path of the file from .properties file   
String file =  resourceBndl.getString("key");
ObjectInputStream objectinputstream = new ObjectInputStream(new FileInputStream(file));
        key = (SecretKey)objectinputstream.readObject();
        cipher = Cipher.getInstance("DES");
        cipher.init(1, key);
        byte abyte0[] = s.getBytes("UTF8");
        byte abyte1[] = cipher.doFinal(abyte0);
        BASE64Encoder base64encoder = new BASE64Encoder();
        s2 = base64encoder.encode(abyte1);
} catch(InvalidKeyException e) {
        out.println("InvalidKeyException:: "+e.getMessage());
        e.printStackTrace();
    } catch(UnsupportedEncodingException e) {
        out.println("UnsupportedEncodingException:: "+e.getMessage());
        e.printStackTrace();
    } catch(IllegalBlockSizeException e) {
        out.println("IllegalBlockSizeException:: "+e.getMessage());
        e.printStackTrace();
    } catch(FileNotFoundException e) {
        out.println("FileNotFoundException:: "+e.getMessage());
        e.printStackTrace();
    } catch(ClassNotFoundException e) {
    out.println("ClassNotFoundException:: "+e.getMessage());
        e.printStackTrace();
    } catch(NoSuchAlgorithmException e) {
    out.println("NoSuchAlgorithmException:: "+e.getMessage());
        e.printStackTrace();
    } catch(NoSuchPaddingException e) {
    out.println("NoSuchPaddingException:: "+e.getMessage());
        e.printStackTrace();
    } catch(IOException e) {
    out.println("IOException:: "+e.toString()); 
        
    }
    return s2;
}

Thanks for the help.

Perhaps the serialized object file is not correct on the server. If you uploaded it via FTP, then perhaps you used text mode rather than image mode? Or perhaps the code is finding the wrong file (i.e., the file on the server is plain text, rather than the expect serialized object file).

I have uploaded the file via FTP, and also have uploaded it using "Binary" Transfer type, but still there is the same problem. Any idea...

Thanks

Can you post the code where you created the serialized Secret Key?

Keys are based on the implementation. Perhaps you don't have the right cipher suite in your classpath? Or maybe there is something in the way you are writing the serialized object.
