Hey Guys,

I'm back again with another crazy GPG issue:

I receive the following error when I run my decryption process through the Oracle BPEL process:

gpg: public key is E3328CE0
gpg: using secondary key E3328CE0 instead of primary key 26C55D64
gpg: using secondary key E3328CE0 instead of primary key 26C55D64
gpg: encrypted with 2048-bit ELG-E key, ID E3328CE0, created 2003-05-13
"SmartMail Services <helpdesk [at] smartmail>"
gpg: public key decryption failed: bad passphrase
gpg: decryption failed: secret key not available

I've had an issue with running gpg commands via Oracle BPEL before but the change to the new server fixed it in the TEST. Now I have this new issues on another server in the BAT environment. When the passphrase is passed via BPEL process I get the error above but when I pass the same error via command line, it decrypts the files just fine. Some how I think this is a configuration issue what are your thoughts.

It's more likely a programming error with how the passphrase is being passed
than a "configuration" error.

Hey John,

Same code that was deployed on this server has worked on 2 other servers, my dev and test servers. The code has not been altered in anyway. I've found that the linux admin had to tweek the new test server to get it working like the dev server. After that tweet was made the code started to work just fine. The tweet that was made was updating gpg to 1.4.2 as the my dev server. We did the same to my BAT server but that didn't work.

Andre
