Help Needed Plz!! Can't load Webapps of Tomcat in z/os

[Pault]

I have Tomcat started listening to 8088 port. But I am getting exceptions for loading webapps in the startup, here is the stack trace. I am getting this for all webapps that comes with Tomcat. servlet-examples, tomcat-docs, etc.
I understand ramdom generator gives erros as IBMs implimentation is different, but I am concered about IOException an dthe RuntimeException.
Any help greatly appreciated.

I am running in z/os with IBM Java 1.5 31 bit JDK.

You are getting an error from the ICSF function CSNBOWH (one-way hash).

If you want to use ICSF and the IBM Java providers, then you need to track down this problem and correct it, and possibly open a PMR with IBM. Otherwise, you should remove the IBM ICSF providers from java.security so that the hardware facility is not used.

I see the following in the security settings ... I am not sur ewhich one I need to override, and override with what?

#
# List of providers and their preference orders (see above):
#
# security.provider.1=com.ibm.jsse2.IBMJSSEProvider2
# Security.provider.2=com.ibm.crypto.provider.IBMJCE
security.provider.1=com.ibm.crypto.hdwrCCA.provider.IBMJCECCA
security.provider.2=com.ibm.crypto.provider.IBMJCE
security.provider.3=com.ibm.security.jgss.IBMJGSSProvider
security.provider.4=com.ibm.security.cert.IBMCertPath
security.provider.5=com.ibm.security.sasl.IBMSASL

Please advise....

Thanx

Someone at your installation customized it to use the IBMJCECCA provider. (provider #1 was changed). Here's the documentation on using the ICSF providers with IBM's SDK:

http://www-03.ibm.com/servers/eserver/z ... cecca.html

You can put back the original provider.1 if you don't want to use it.
