Em conjunção do meu outroquestão, e depois de mudar esta pequena parte dos códigos

FileOutputStream output = new FileOutputStream("sheepTest.png");
    CipherOutputStream cos = new CipherOutputStream(output, pbeCipher);
    ImageIO.write(input, "PNG", cos);
    cos.close();

da parte descriptografar, eu enfrentei outro erro que é isso

Exception in thread "main" java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: image == null!
at javax.imageio.ImageTypeSpecifier.createFromRenderedImage(Unknown Source)
at javax.imageio.ImageIO.getWriter(Unknown Source)
at javax.imageio.ImageIO.write(Unknown Source)
at encypt.com.trial.main(trial.java:82)

e quando clico em sheepTest.png, o arquivo está vazio. Onde está o erro (s)? Alguém pode me ajudar a resolver o erro? Obrigado.
