Since upgrading from Tomcat from 5.5.9 to 5.5.17, I found that my two webapps that both need to use encryption via JCE providers are not working. Only the "first to load" webapp works as it installs the provider just fine, but the other cannot and then fails. It seems that a single JVM can only load the security providers once. When running tomcat with a security manager, it appears that the first webapp to initialize loads the provider successfully (says in slot 7). The second webapp tries to also load the provider, gets the routine error saying it was installed in slot -1, but now fails to be able to find the provider. If I turn off the security manager in TC (no -security startup option), it works fine, even though the second to load still gets the "-1 slot" error installing the JCE provider. This all worked fine under 5.5.9 with a security manager.

So, the problem appears to be with the security manager in 5.5.17 is not able to find the provider as it once could because it's been loaded into the JVM by another webapp. At the bottom is the exception stack trace.

I am running Tomcat 5.5.17 with a security manager (started with -security) under RedHat Linux using BouncyCastle JCE 1.33 with JDK 1.5.

Thanks,
David
