RE: GnuGP Error
What is the error? Subject: GnuGP Error To: Gnupg-users@gnupg.org From: bshadl...@hertz.com Date: Thu, 7 Apr 2011 15:25:28 +1300 Hi there, We are using GnuGP 1.1.3 on a few PCs, all able to decrypt using 1 public key. I can use it on my PC, but a new user on a new PC is getting constant errors. I've installed the SW, imported the correct and only key, but still get the error. If I log in to the new PC, I get the same error. I've uninstalled the SW, removed all associated folders and files, installed the SW again, and still the same error. Any suggestions?

Is there any other software installed which is not on the other PCs? Shalom-Salam, Werner -- Die Gedanken sind frei.

Without the specific error message, we're reduced to mind-reading and guessing. However, I'll take a guess and say you need to import the secret key as well as the public. As there is only one key involved, the quick and dirty (BUT non-canonical and guaranteed to change in a future version) way is to copy the files from a working profile to the new user. The keyring files, pubring.gpg, secring.gpg, trustdb.gpg, are stored by default in %APPDATA%\GnuPG. This usually translates as - Window XP and earlier (XP/2000/NT) - C:\Documents and Settings\username\Application Data\GnuPG - Windows Vista and Windows 7: C:\Users\username\AppData\Roaming\gnupg Any custom settings for GnuPG are stored in gpg.conf. It and any other GnuPG config files are /normally/ located in the same directory as the keyring files. -- John P.
