Thank you, Nikolay, for your reply to my question. I downloaded and installed spongycastle. However, it still didn't work because the jar does not include the classes specifically for the certification generation. I saw the POM exclude those packages explicitly. So, I commented out the exclusion and tried to recompile I could not do maven install because the many tests failed, event though I exclude all the tests. Do you know what's the best way to recompile the jar which include the cms, operator, cert, jcejca packages?
