your screenshot suggests that you're doing all of this on some remote machine via ssh (it looks like you're using putty on windows). You haven't mentioned what operating system you're using, though. Anyway, gpg might want to use pinentry to gather the passphrase from the user, and it's not clear that you have the right environment set up for pinentry. whatever package manager you have, can you install pinentry-curses and try again? --dkg PS "Excellence is not an Adjective but a Verb" -- it's actually a noun :)
