Public bug reported:
I created a kdbx file through the KeePassX GUI application. This
database is locked with both a password and a key file. I try to unlock
the database through the kpcli command line tool with the following
commands inside the kpcli prompt:
open <my kdbx file> <my key file>
I am then prompted for my password. After I enter my password, kpcli
presents to me the following error message:
Couldn't load the file kpstuff2.kdbx: The database key appears invalid
or else the database is corrupt.
However, I am able to unlock the file through the KeePassX GUI
application. I am also able to unlock other database files that are
locked only with a password. I am unable to unlock databases that are
locked with both a password and a key file.
Expected behavior: I think kpcli should be able to unlock a database
with a password and a key file if the key file is generated through
KeePassX.
