Has anyone experienced errors when using the Triple DES Encryption encoding/decoding methods? When I try encrypting a string using [2]SettingsManager.SaveSettingEncrypted I seem to have issues decoding it using the SettingsManager.GetSettingEncrypted method. This decode method appears to spit back a "Bad Data" error message. I tried encrypting the following string "test". What would cause this error?[/2]
Thanks

Depends on which version of the software you're running. We found in cases of very short messages in older BV 5 versions that sometime the encryption could throw errors. We corrected the error in a later service pack. Make sure you're running 5.6. We ran a bunch of unit tests on encryption for that version.

Hey Marcus,
I am running version 5.6. I tried entering a longer string for example "testtesttest" and still have the same issue. Any ideas would greatly be appreciated.
Thanks again

There is a source code test project for BVSoftware.Cryptography that you can run to verify the encryption and decryption of a specific string.
Was anything hand edited in the database? That can cause errors.
