READING FROM FILE DECRYPTION ERROR

Hi,

I can successfully encode and write to a file using DESede and tested my code using a standard String encode/decode test. However when reading from the file again my message always is a blank String

cipher.init(Cipher.ENCRYPT_MODE, key);

CipherInputStream cis = new CipherInputStream(fis, cipher);

byte data[] = new byte[cis.available()];

cis.read(data);

String msg = decrypt(data);

System.out.println("msg: "+msg);

System.out.println("msgbte: "+msg.hashCode());

cis.close();

My decrypt method is here

cipher.init(Cipher.DECRYPT_MODE, key);

byte[] recoveredBytes = cipher.doFinal(encryptionBytes);

String recovered = new String(recoveredBytes);

return recovered;

Note: This code doesnt return any Exceptions however the hexCode is always 0. What can i do?
