-----------------------------------
Summary: Improve error message when long password is used for
config encryption on machine without JCE policies
Key: NIFI-3171
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-3171
Project: Apache NiFi
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: Tools and Build
Affects Versions: 1.1.0
Reporter: Andy LoPresto
If the user runs {{./bin/encrypt-config.sh}} with a password longer than 16
bytes on a machine without the JCE unlimited strength cryptographic
jurisdiction policies installed, an Illegal Key Size exception will be thrown
and the full stack trace will be printed (in verbose mode).
We should detect the absence/presence of strong crypto availability and perform
a length check on the password before attempting to derive the encryption key
from this value in order to provide better error messaging.
