Hi,

I am running jopenssl 0.5.2 and it errors out when encrypting data,  
but this works correctly with openssl. The cipher I used is DES-CBC  
with no padding. Test case along with results for both ruby and jruby  
are shown below.

Please kindly help as we have a very tight deadline to meet and this  
is a show-stopper for us.

# Test case for irb

irb  
require ‘openssl’  
key = “0599E113A7EE32A9”  
data =  
“1234567890~5J96LC303C1D22DD~20090930005944~http%3A%2F%2Flocalhost%3A8080%2Flogin%3B0%3B1~http%3A%2F%[2Fmix-stage.oracle.com](http://2Fmix-stage.oracle.com)%2F~00”  
c1 = OpenSSL::Cipher::Cipher.new(“DES-CBC”)  
c1.padding = 0  
c1.encrypt  
c1.key = key  
e = c1.update data  
e \<\< c1.final

c2 = OpenSSL::Cipher::Cipher.new(“DES-CBC”)  
c2.padding = 0  
c2.decrypt  
c2.key = key  
d = c2.update e  
d \<\< c2.final

# Test case for Jruby irb (same as above but using jruby/jopenssl)

jruby -S irb  
require ‘openssl’  
key = “0599E113A7EE32A9”  
data =  
“1234567890~5J96LC303C1D22DD~20090930005944~http%3A%2F%2Flocalhost%3A8080%2Flogin%3B0%3B1~http%3A%2F%[2Fmix-stage.oracle.com](http://2Fmix-stage.oracle.com)%2F~00”  
c1 = OpenSSL::Cipher::Cipher.new(“DES-CBC”)  
c1.padding = 0

Hi, would you mind turning this into a test/unit-style test case and  
file it in a JIRA ([http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/JRUBY](http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/JRUBY))? That will  
help us track the problem. We can’t guarantee a quick turnaround for  
community requests, but if you think your team might be interested in  
support please send me a separate email at [removed\_email\_address@domain.invalid](mailto:removed_email_address@domain.invalid).

Thanks,  
/Nick
