Hi Ben,
Thank you very much for the detailed explanation. I was too focused on JCE
jurisdiction files replacement at first then diverted onto something else away
from the real problem.
Can't wait to try the fix tomorrow and will of course keep you posted.
By the way I could not find anything about what you mentioned in the Geoserver
documentation apart from Java 1.9 incompatibility. Unless I've missed
something. Maybe worth noting for future reference.
Kind Regards,
Sameer

To: Abdool, Sameer, 'geoserver-users@lists.sourceforge.net'
Sameer, it is not a bug: it is a "feature" (of Oracle JDK 8u151):
http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/8u151-relnotes-3850493.html "New
Features security-libs/javax.crypto New Security property to control crypto
policy This release introduces a new feature whereby the JCE jurisdiction
policy files used by the JDK can be controlled via a new Security property. In
older releases, JCE jurisdiction files had to be downloaded and installed
separately to allow unlimited cryptography to be used by the JDK. The download
and install steps are no longer necessary. To enable unlimited cryptography,
one can use the new crypto.policy Security property. If the new Security
property (crypto.policy) is set in the java.security file, or has been set
dynamically by using the Security.setProperty() call before the JCE framework
has been initialized, that setting will be honored. By default, the property
will be undefined. If the property is undefined and the legacy JCE jurisdiction
files don't exist in the legacy lib/security directory, then the default
cryptographic level will remain at 'limited'. To configure the JDK to use
unlimited cryptography, set the crypto.policy to a value of 'unlimited'. See
the notes in the java.security file shipping with this release for more
information." The evidence that this is your problem can be found in
geoserver.log. This is only a WARN so not immediately fatal (GeoServer
continues when a data store cannot be loaded). There are several of these:
2017-12-04 10:14:57,078 WARN [org.geoserver] - Failed to load data store 'OS

solution is to follow the instructions in the Oracle JDK 8u151 release notes to
configure the JDK to use unlimited cryptography. Kind regards, Ben. On 06/12/17
