Bug 389919

We use GnuPG4Win with kleopatra 3.0.3 and it seems that we have the same problem.

keo-log says:
Got unexpected locking error 161
couldn't lock local file
0x5f20788

Maybe the following is helpful:

I can't reproduce this. What I tried was to connect a Network Drive (from a Samba share of a Linux machine) and then linked both the GnuPG Home directory and kleopatras config directory to that drive.

There was no crash.

What is the target of your redirection and can you tell me more how to set something like this up?

Also where exactly and how is kleopatra crashing when you just launch it. Does it show the self test?
The attached error message does not help much it only shows that our Explorer Plugin can't talk to Kleopatra as Kleo crashed somehwere.

Still setting this to confirmed as there are multiple reports about this.

Thank you very much for the reply. 

The next two weeks I'm not able to do more testing, but the second week of March I will follow up on the problem.

The user Appdata is redirected to \\server\usersettings$\%Username%\Appdata\Roaming through Group policy

As I did not have a Windows Server I didn't have the option to redirect through Group Policy. But I was able to reproduce the problems by changing AppData through the registry.

I could reproduce a crash on sign & encrypt. A crash when generating a new Key and "General Error" when creating a new key. And Kleopatra was not able to save configuration (the locking error).

There were two bugs with code that didn't handle UNC Paths (which explains why a symlink did not show the problems). One was in GnuPG itself (gpgconf) and the other was in the Gpg4win patches for Qt.

I fixed both and now I can no longer see any problem when running Kleopatra on a redirected appdata dir.


A new Gpg4win release with the fixes is planned ~mid March, or at least a beta with them.

Please subscribe to the upstream issue https://dev.gnupg.org/T3818 if you want to be informed about a release with the fixes.


Thanks for your reports,
Andre

Thanks very much for the followup, we are looking forward to the new version and will test it when it's released.

We tested with the 3.1.0-beta version and the problem is resolved. We are now able to encrypt and decrypt files without crashes.

Thanks for testing! 
Good to hear.

But with the current Beta there might still be issues. E.g. Configuration of the GnuPG-System won't work. These problems are already solved but await a new GnuPG release which will be part of the final release.
