    Issue:

     

    I'm trying to register the Agent for JBoss to the Policy Server, and the registration fails giving the following output :

     

    [root@linux-U171282 bin]# ./smreghost.sh -i myps.test.com -u siteminder -p mypassword -hn myagent -hc myagent -cf COMPAT -o

    Caused by: java.lang.SecurityException: Unsupported algorithm, MD5, selected for FIPS140 mode: FIPS140

     

    How can I solve this problem ?


    Environment:

     

    Agent for JBoss 12.52SP1CR06 with JDK 1.8.0_60 64bit;


    Cause:

     

    In order to use the MD5 algorithm, you should configure the JDK to disable the FIPS140 encryption.


    Resolution:

     

    Edit the /opt/jdk1.8.0_60/jre/lib/security/java.security file to have the following configuration. Be sure the last line with com.rsa.cryptoj is set.

     

      security.provider.1=com.ibm.crypto.provider.IBMJCE
      security.provider.2=com.rsa.jsafe.provider.JsafeJCE
      security.provider.3=sun.security.provider.Sun
      security.provider.4=sun.security.rsa.SunRsaSign
      security.provider.5=sun.security.ec.SunEC
      security.provider.6=com.sun.net.ssl.internal.ssl.Provider
      security.provider.7=com.sun.crypto.provider.SunJCE
      security.provider.8=sun.security.jgss.SunProvider
      security.provider.9=com.sun.security.sasl.Provider
      security.provider.10=org.jcp.xml.dsig.internal.dom.XMLDSigRI
      security.provider.11=sun.security.smartcardio.SunPCSC
      com.rsa.cryptoj.fips140initialmode=NON_FIPS140_MODE
