[jira] Commented: (DERBY-1740) Change error message to indicate encryptionkey length to be atleast 16 characters instead of 8 characters

Kristian Waagan commented on DERBY-1740:
----------------------------------------

Could you provide more detail on this issue?
I'm not able to reproduce it. It caught my interest because I worked on DERBY-788.

1) Is the 'Affects Version/s' correct?
     It is terribly old :)

2) What JVM and security provider did you use?

3) Do you have a stack trace?
     In the trunk, there are only two places where the exception can be thrown.

Thanks,
