[U2] GPG encryption from within Universe
Anyone using gpg from GNUpg for encryption? Running IBM Universe on Windows NT. I downloaded this DOS based encryption software from www.gnupg.org as required by one of our trading partners. It works perfectly from a DOS command prompt - gpg --armor --recipient XXX -encrypt-file FILENAME etc.etc etc, creating FILENAME.asc. in the same directory. But when I shell out from within Universe using DOS /c gpg etc etc etc, I get an error message cannot find public key. I suspect this has something to do with either the way I created the keys or with Windows registries. Anyone run into this problem before? I have a workaround, an endless .bat loop on the server, that encrypts a given filename whenever it finds it, but...YECCHH! There's gotta be a better way. Any ideas?

If it works from a command line in C:\, try adding --homedir=C:\ to your command line string in Universe. - Rod -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of Ed Weissman Sent: Monday, June 27, 2005 1:54 PM To: u2-users@listserver.u2ug.org Subject: [U2] GPG encryption from within Universe Anyone using gpg from GNUpg for encryption?

Ed, Don't execute it that way. Encapsulate it in a BAT file that starts by changing the directory to to the gpg directory. Let UniVerse run that new BAT on-demand.

Ed What version of UniVerse? There are 'issues' with the DOS /c ... command if you try to pass it arguments (like FILENAME or path names) with embedded spaces. There is a fix for this in 10.1.1 From the 10.1.1 Release Notes: 5616At this release, a new GCI function, UVRunCommand, has been added. This command executes a Windows executable and has one argument. You can specify the executable name and its argument as a string. To execute the command, use C:\windows\system32\cmd.exe /c. You must use single or double quotation marks around the string argument, as shown in the following example: Result = UVRunCommand(c:\WINDOWS\system32\cmd.exe /c dir) Alternatively, you could make sure there are no embedded spaces anywhere in your parameters Or You could create a batch file on the fly and execute that HTH Mike -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Ed Weissman Sent: Tuesday, 28 June 2005 06:54 To: u2-users@listserver.u2ug.org Subject: [U2] GPG encryption from within Universe Anyone using gpg from GNUpg for encryption?
