I'm trying to use JSCH to upload a file to a remote SFTP share. Every time I attempt to connect to the share from within my code, I get an exception that looks something like this:
com.jcraft.jsch.JSchException: Session.connect: java.security.InvalidKeyException: Key is too long for this algorithm
at com.jcraft.jsch.Session.connect(Session.java:558) ~[jsch-0.1.51.jar:na]
at com.jcraft.jsch.Session.connect(Session.java:183) ~[jsch-0.1.51.jar:na]
I've seen posts that describe this error when upgrading to Java 8, but we're still on Java 7, and I don't know enough about Java's cryptography support to know if that matters.
Some people suggest installing JCE (Java Cryptography Extensions) to solve this problem, so I gave it a shot, but I still get the same error after copying the appropriate jar files into the /libs/security directory and restarting the application. We confirmed that JCE was installed by executing this script and noting that the exception was not thrown.
I also tried connecting to the remote SFTP share from the terminal using the sftp command in verbose mode. Here's what I got:

If I'm reading the output correctly (and I may not be) the handshake process settled on using aes128-cbc for key exchange and hmac-md5 for the actual session encryption. According to the JSCH documentation (minimal though it may be), both of these algorithms are supported.
I can connect to this share with both the sftp command-line utility and with FileZilla, so the problem has to either be with JSCH or with my Java configuration, but I'm at a loss to figure out what's what.
Java version:
java version "1.7.0_71"
OpenJDK Runtime Environment
OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM (build 24.65-b04, mixed mode)
JSCH version:
<dependency>
<groupId>com.jcraft</groupId>
<artifactId>jsch</artifactId>
<version>0.1.51</version>
</dependency>
Thanks in advance!
EDIT: It looks like a bug for this exact behaviour was filed against the JDK, but was closed with no resolution. There's also an email thread between the maintainers of JSCH and the JDK developers that discusses the issue, but has no resolution.
We ended up swapping JSCH out for SSHJ. It depends on the BouncyCastle crypto libraries rather than on Java's built-in crypto packages, and is capable of connecting to our server with no problems.
You can force JSCH to use SHA256 instead of SHA1 with keysize > 1024 (which JSSE doesn't allow anymore) like this:
java.util.Properties configuration = new java.util.Properties();
configuration.put("kex", "diffie-hellman-group-exchange-sha256");
configuration.put("StrictHostKeyChecking", "no");
session.setConfig(configuration);
Actually, the bug for this behaviour that was filed against the JDK was not closed - the decision to close it was reverted and it has been fixed a few days later. It has later been backported, so upgrading to Java SE 8u45 (or higher) solves the issue as well.

Replace local_policy.jar and US_export_policy.jar with unrestricted policy files at following location : Java\jre7\lib\security\
I had similar problem while encryption of data with ibm jre version 1.5 and tomcat.
