I used has double dashes still I gives the same error.

I think I am using the default keyring as I didn't change its location


try using the --homedir path_to_your_keyring option

Hi,



I am new to gpg command line utility for file encryption/decryption. I
have installed gpg4win v 2.0.2  trying to encrypt a file with a key
that I imported which is also listing while typing list-keys command



The issue is that I am getting encryption failed no public key while
typing in the below command


gpg -recipient testUserID -encrypt abc.txt




In one of the posts I found that this is due to not specifying keyring
location with using -keyring option



But while I used below command with specifying keyring as below




gpg -recipient testIUserID -keyring C:/Documents

Settings/username/Application Data/gnupg/pubring.gpg -encrypt abc.txt



I am getting below error



gpg: keyblock resource 'C:/Documents  Settings/username/Application
Data/gnupg/C:/Documents' no such file or directory

usage: gpg [options] [filename]




The first command isn't working because you need to double-dash the
options.  --recipient and --encrypt.

You really shouldn't need the -keyring option if you're using your
default keyring.  But for the option to work, you would need quotes
around the filename since it has spaces in it.

I figured out the issue

Need to sign the key after it is imported.

You shouldn't need to sign the key.  It should give you a warning but
let you encrypt it anyway:

 It is NOT certain that the key belongs to the person named
 in the user ID.  If you *really* know what you are doing,
 you may answer the next question with yes.

 Use this key anyway? (y/N)

Signing will remove that warning, but you don't need to sign every
single key you import to use encryption.

 Signing will remove that warning, but you don't need to sign every
 single key you import to use encryption.

  IIRC, some GUIs don't provide that confirmation, and reject the key,
so maybe it would be a good idea to issue a local signature. Also, it
helps to distinguish between a key you have checked, and new keys that
may have been created by Eve.
