I have come across this situation once [1] ... and this seems to be
due to a problem with the JVM that you use.
Thanks,

I was now trying out the security sample that comes with Axis2 std dist.
I am getting the following exception.
Have anyone come across similar exception.
Digging into the code source I find the place where the null pointer is
being thrown....
MessageDigest md5 = null;
try {
md5 = MessageDigest.getInstance("MD5");
} catch (NoSuchAlgorithmException e) {
//System.out.println("Error: " + e);
//todo heve to be properly handle
}
md5.update(sb.toString().getBytes());
md5 is null.
If I create a simple java class with just a single statement of
MessageDigest.getInstance("MD5");
everything works fine.
Any idea why MessageDigest.getInstance("MD5") might be returning a null?
