Java : My system for decrypt text doesn't work

I've a system for encrypt texts, but i've tried to create a system for decrypt texts, and it doesn't work. The system is :

He just return the encrypted text, but not the decrypted text. Have you an idea for debug this?

Thanks in advance.

byte[] getEncrypt(String text) throws NoSuchPaddingException, NoSuchAlgorithmException, InvalidKeyException, BadPaddingException, IllegalBlockSizeException
{
    String key = "Bép12345Taruy'(";

    Key aesKey = new SecretKeySpec(key.getBytes(), "AES");
    Cipher cipher = Cipher.getInstance("AES");

    cipher.init(Cipher.ENCRYPT_MODE, aesKey);
    byte[] encrypted = cipher.doFinal(text.getBytes());

    return encrypted;
}

String getDecrypt(String text) throws NoSuchPaddingException, NoSuchAlgorithmException, InvalidKeyException, BadPaddingException, IllegalBlockSizeException
{
    String key = "Bép12345Taruy'(";

    Key aesKey = new SecretKeySpec(key.getBytes(), "AES");
    Cipher cipher = Cipher.getInstance("AES");

    cipher.init(Cipher.ENCRYPT_MODE, aesKey);
    byte[] encrypted = cipher.doFinal(text.getBytes());

    cipher.init(Cipher.DECRYPT_MODE, aesKey);
    String decrypted = new String(cipher.doFinal(encrypted));

    return decrypted;
}

I use jasypt to encrypt passwords. The method is very simple.

BasicTextEncryptor textEncryptor = new BasicTextEncryptor();
textEncryptor.setPassword("some_Password_Maybe_generated_At_random");
...
String myEncryptedText = textEncryptor.encrypt(myText);
...
String plainText = textEncryptor.decrypt(myEncryptedText);

Normally I do not put the password in the source but i save it in a file in the user home dir.

The encryption is as strong as the user home dir is safe and private.

This method is good because it returns a string which can be put in a config file.

As I said before, it is not very safe, it will protect the encrypted text as long as the encryption password is safe.

You encrypt the encrypted text in your getDecrypt(...) method. Or do you want to encrypt and decript it again in one method?

One solution would be following code:

package test;

import java.security.InvalidKeyException;
import java.security.Key;
import java.security.NoSuchAlgorithmException;

import javax.crypto.BadPaddingException;
import javax.crypto.Cipher;
import javax.crypto.IllegalBlockSizeException;
import javax.crypto.NoSuchPaddingException;
import javax.crypto.spec.SecretKeySpec;

public class Test2{        

    public static void main(String[] args) throws InvalidKeyException, NoSuchPaddingException, NoSuchAlgorithmException, BadPaddingException, IllegalBlockSizeException {
        System.out.println(new String(getEncrypt("test")));
        System.out.println(new String(getDecrypt(getEncrypt("test"))));
        
    }

    public static byte[] getEncrypt(String text) throws NoSuchPaddingException, NoSuchAlgorithmException, InvalidKeyException, BadPaddingException, IllegalBlockSizeException {
        String key = "Bép12345Taruy'(";

        Key aesKey = new SecretKeySpec(key.getBytes(), "AES");
        Cipher cipher = Cipher.getInstance("AES");

        cipher.init(Cipher.ENCRYPT_MODE, aesKey);
        byte[] encrypted = cipher.doFinal(text.getBytes());

        return encrypted;
    }

    public static byte [] getDecrypt(byte[] encrypted) throws NoSuchPaddingException, NoSuchAlgorithmException, InvalidKeyException, BadPaddingException, IllegalBlockSizeException {
        String key = "Bép12345Taruy'(";

        Key aesKey = new SecretKeySpec(key.getBytes(), "AES");
        Cipher cipher = Cipher.getInstance("AES");

        cipher.init(Cipher.DECRYPT_MODE, aesKey);
        return cipher.doFinal(encrypted);
    }
    
}

Output:
