Java io.jsonwebtoken.MalformedJwtException: Unable to read JSON value:

Question

I have following function written to parse claims:

  public Claims getAllClaimsFromToken(String token) {
    return Jwts.parser().setSigningKey(config.getJwtSecret()).parseClaimsJws(token).getBody();
}

And when I try to call the function with the following string:

yJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiJ9.eyJzdWIiOiJicGF3YW4iLCJyb2xlIjpudWxsLCJlbmFibGUiOm51bGwsImV4cCI6MTUzNDgyMzUyNSwiaWF0IjoxNTM0Nzk0NzI1fQ.65PPknMebR53ykLm-EBIunjFJvlV-vL-pfTOtbBLtnQ

I get the following error:

Caused by: com.fasterxml.jackson.core.JsonParseException: Unrecognized token 'Ș': was expecting ('true', 'false' or 'null') at [Source: (String)"Ș[Ȏ��̍M��"; line: 1, column: 2]

no matter what I try I could not find the cause of the error. Anybody have experienced the same error. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you very much

Answer 1

io.jsonwebtoken.MalformedJwtException: JWT strings must contain exactly 2 period characters. Found: 'X'

This means the JWT token is not the valid token and it does not contains the separator deliminator . . Please check the mechanism from where you are generating the token for JWT.
