Does this still happen with the current KGpg version? Created attachment 64918 [details]
New crash information added by DrKonqi
kgpg (2.6.1) on KDE Platform 4.7.2 (4.7.2) using Qt 4.7.4
- What I was doing when the application crashed:
Creating a new pair of keys
- Unusual behavior I noticed:
Nothing, except that when I start KPGP I get a message saying ""An error occurred while scanning your keyring" when kgpg starts.
- Custom settings of the application:

I would be interested in this error. Please open a terminal and run gpg --version >/dev/null Usually GnuPG will complain that your config is srewed (which was another bug and will now make KGpg immediately exit without crashing). Dear Rolf, When I try to execute the comand in konsole I get the following message: gpg: /home/user/.gnupg/gpg.conf:4: argument not expected gpg: /home/user/.gnupg/gpg.conf:5: invalid option > gpg: /home/user/.gnupg/gpg.conf:4: argument not expected
> gpg: /home/user/.gnupg/gpg.conf:5: invalid option
Then please fix your /home/user/.gnupg/gpg.conf first beforestarting KGpg.
This usually comes from programs writing stuff for GnuPG2 into the config
and users with GnuPG 1.4 get problems with it.
Thank you Rolf, I'm quite new to gpg (in fact it's first time I try to use it), could you please tell me what do you mean by "fixing" /home/user/.gnupg/gpg.conf I understand there's a problem in this file, but since I don't know what the problem is, I don't know how to fix it. Thank you Thank you Eike. since it was the first time I use gpg I decided to delete /home/user/.gpg folder and execute KGPG again. Now I don't get any warning and I can create a new pair of keys! Unfortunately that's not exactly true, since when I create the pair of keys and type passfrase I get a message saying that the keys were not created although my system tray says the contrary. The fact is that keys are not created. Since KGPG does not crash now but fails in creating keys I don't know if I have to create a new issue or stay here. Regards Yes, this is a new issue. |
