Hi Team,

We want to use PGP Command Line 10.3 software and for that we have downloaded its trail version. I am able to generate keys but I am not able to encrypt a file.

We are currently using its trail version as we want to ensure weather it will integrate with our current application. 

Please suggest solution. I request to have a call on this as we want to purchase this software but after successful round of test on trail version.

Regards,

Hi,

I am trying to import and delete MAKs on PGP server using command line but whenever I do it I am getting error: 3090 operation failed request rejected by server.

Command used:

pgp --import-mek --usp-server keys1.expressmessage.net --parent asc_files/testuser@encryptedpgp.net

need assistance, please help, Thanks !

Hello all!

Is there any additional information available about error 2508: too many matches found during public key lookups on any given 'open' keyserver? Currently I've only been able to extract results up to 100 keys per server;

keyserver search (2508:too many matches found)
keyserver search (2504:successful search)

100 keys found

I find it coincidental when all the servers I look up contain only up to a 100 keys.

The command line documentation only clarifies the following:

2508 - too many matches found - The search timed out while still receiving results from the keyserver.

The above stated seems to suggest I suffer from time outs even though the search completes succesfully constantly providing up to 100 results.

Any suggestions on how to retrieve the correct amount of keys available?

Hi,

We would just like to inquire what is the minimum and maximum passphrase length for PGP Command line. Currently we have the PGP Command Line 10.3. This is only for our documentation

Please advise.

Thank you.

I have a number of projects that I am working on that require me to automate some encryption but I'm having a considerable amount of difficulty getting it working correctly. 

I have a service account set up with a keychain with all the keys I need. 

The desire is
SSIS or other package on a remote server A needs to remotely launch the following command
pgp.exe --decrypt \\Remote Server B\*.asc" --passphrase "mypass" --output "\\RemoteServerC" 

The problem im running into here is with authentication. The authentication seems to be breaking between all of the servers when I try to run the command. If I run the same command from the PGP server itself while logged into that account it will run just fine, it only fails to authenticate to the remote servers when I try to run it from a server other than PGP. 

I have gotten around this by writing powershell scripts that are located on the PGP server and launching them, but this is not a sustainable approach. Also, I really don't like having my password in cleartext. That means I have to provide passwords to my developers. I could set it up as a env variable, but PGP will only accept the one variable and I'm going to have multiple passphrases being used for multiple keys on this server. 

Is anyone doing anything like this that can give me some pointers on what I can do?

Hi everyone!

First topic and a big issue to solve. Hope I can find the solution with your help.

We are trying to import a PGP key that was exported from Windows PGP Command Line into a Linux PGP Command Line.

First we tried this:

pgp --import MY_KEY_FILE.asc -v -d

And we got this output:

bash-4.2$ pgp --import MY_KEY_FILE.asc  -v -d
pgp:import key (3157:current local time 2016-06-15T09:36:40-05:00)
/path/to/pgp/.pgp/pubring.pkr:open keyrings (1006:public keyring)
/path/to/pgp/.pgp/secring.skr:open keyrings (1007:private keyring)
pgp:import key (3090:operation failed, unknown error)                    

Then we tried to copy the private and public keyrings from windows do linux (sftp binary). Then we are getting this message:

pgp:encrypt (3090:operation failed, size of the buffer is too large)

Both, Windows and Linux, are on the same version. As you can see bellow:

Microsoft Windows [Version 6.1.7601]

I really don`t know what to do.

Can anyone give me some help?

Thank you very much.

I can't upload my key with two identities. "An unexpected error has occurred. Please try your request again."

When I do the only one ID it is ok.

Here is my public key:

Hi, 

I want some help, I have installed PGP Command Line on a Solaris Server with root user but changing the default installation directory under:

/aplic/prod/pgp

The product was licenced and everithing seems to be ok. Then i want to use two users in order to do some automated process, pgp and pgpexe, then i got two differents behaviors.

under pgp user:

$
$ pgp --version
PGP Command Line 10.3.2 build 12316

$

But under pgpexe user, i got nothing:

$
$ pgp --version
$

It seems to be executing something, but i got no exit from any command.

Someone has been solved this issue?.

I have just installed the PGP command line package. I have a public key from a outside enttiy that I need to use to encrypt a file. 

I have successfully imported the key, but shows as invalid and I have been unable to get the key recongized as valid. 

I tried to sign the key but I keep getting error 1052 - No signing key specified. 

I am totally new to the product - forgive my ignorance. 

But what do I need to do to get this key to be recognized as valid and then use it to encrypt a file?

Hi,

Does any one know How to Encrpted SAP ERP HCM data,

Hi 

 PGP Command Line Version 10.  Installed on Server A 

 Need to be migrated to Server B

At a high level : 

Steps:

-  Install PGP command line V 10 on Server B

- License ( copy from Server A ?) 

- Create keys in needed - move the key files. 

- Copy over key files from Server A

- Add all keys from Server A 

No change needed in code / no keys need to be exchanged again

Does this sound about right? please correct me if I am wrong. 

Thanks

Hi,

We have an issue with PGP decryption when the file is encrypted with signing. We are getting below error when we are trying to decrypt. Same decryption is working fine when Third Party is sending encrypted file without signing.

We have imported Third party public key in our keyring and validated fingerprint as well.

When we Test same with in our internal systems PGP encryption and decryption is working fine with signing. We are using PGP commandline 6.5.8 version at our end to decrypt file. At source end Third Party is using PGP Command Line 9.9 build 110 version. Do you see any version compatibility issue between these two versions? Any quick response would be appreciated. 

Please let me know in case of any additional details required.

Thanks,

Anil

Hi,

We create a service that will automatically import public key file from the specified public key name (lets say file name should be ClientPublicKey.asc file). After import the key from the specified public key file(ClientPublicKey.asc), encryption will start.

Client would have send the public key in any file name(AnyFileName.asc). I would have renamed client’s public key file name to a specified file name(i.e. Renaming file from "AnyFileName.asc" to "ClientPublickey.asc" file) so that the service will identify and automatically import that public key to the system for encryption.

My question is that, if I would have rename the file to my specified file name (rename from "AnyFileName.asc" to "ClientPublickey.asc" file) then will the client decrypt the .pgp file without any issue?. Is rename and import public key file(.asc) would create any issue for client to decrypt the file?. I just want to clarify this.

Thanks,

Ash

In regard to this
https://support.symantec.com/en_US/article.TECH149...
When it refers to ADK in encryption and decryption, is it assuming encryption with a public key (ADK) and then decrypting with the associated private key

Installed PGP Command Line 10.4 on new Windows 2012 server, copied over keyrings and PGPPrefs.xml file from old server, set PGP_HOME_DIR in enviroment varbles.

I can list the keys and fingerprint shows them as valid.

I can encrypt and decrypt using local keys.

When I try to decrypt a file from a thrid party, I get this error (3090:operation failed, error decompressing data)

I am able to list the packets of the file successfully, I can also dump the packets successfully.

The old server (Windows 2008R2) has no problem decrypting the files.

any ideas what I need to look for?

I'm trying to encrypt a file using PGP Command line and I'm receiving this error

Can anyone help me?

Thanks.

Recently we upgraded a server to 2012 R2 and chose to upgrade to PGP CL 10.4 as well.  We are finding that we have a specific key that we cannot encrypt with.  The key is DSS/512, and works on an older version of PGP.

What can this be?

Similar issue/identical issue posted here:

https://www.symantec.com/connect/forums/encrypt-30...

I have a site I need to send a PGP file to.   They are running an older version of PGP and want us to use an older 1204 RSA Legacy format CIPHER Key.   Is there a way I can force this to happen?

Hi 

I have been using pgp command line version 10.2 for some time now, never got this error before.

From last 1 week, I am getting an error for which I am unable to find the reasons.  Below is the output for any command I execute.  There was no change to system, no updates posted during the time.  Last update was at least a month old.

$pgp --list-keys
pgp:open keyrings (1000:unknown err -11991)

when I want to generate a key or list-keys or display key details.. for any command that I issue with pgp, I get the above error.  If any one got similar error and was able to correct, please inform how to correct. 

I tried removing the .pgp folder and re-creating the files using the --gen-key option.  Folder and files get created, but again the same error comesup.
