Hi,
I am trying to create a SHA256 HMAC in PHP which I would then like to pass to a Java Servlet as an HTTP request parameter. The issue I am running into is that the hash I am getting in Java is different than what is being produced from my PHP code. I have spent hours on this issue and cant figure out whats wrong... Does anyone see any issues with the following two example code blocks? Thanks!!
Java Code (Hex class is from the Apache Commons Codec project):

String algorithm = "HmacSHA256";
//hex encoded 256 bit key
String encryptionKey = "8017aa25b6c6ba0c56110e3544718361af905f83f151f4f3af8f029cd36ee84d";
String message = "the quick brown fox jumped over the ...";
byte[] keyBytes = Hex.decodeHex(encryptionKey.toCharArray());
SecretKeySpec secretKeySpec = new SecretKeySpec(keyBytes, algorithm);
Mac mac = Mac.getInstance(algorithm);
mac.init(secretKeySpec);
byte[] macBytes = mac.doFinal(message.getBytes());
String hexBytes = new String(Hex.encodeHex(macBytes));
System.out.println(hexBytes);        
//Produces Hash: ff6733f1880d248f7d9ba0723219727cb2535588945b62a6fc9829afc1fe22b5

PHP Code:

//hex encoded 256 bit key
$encryptionKey = "8017aa25b6c6ba0c56110e3544718361af905f83f151f4f3af8f029cd36ee84d";
$message = "the quick brown fox jumped over the ...";
$encryptionKeyBytes = pack('H*', $encryptionKey);
$rawHmac = hash_hmac('sha256', $encryptionKeyBytes, $message, true);
echo bin2hex($rawHmac)."\n";
//Produces Hash: b6070cb581bf06ad3cdbe8968773d76e9d2cadc5c138f8f978f1eb442846e21e
