Hello,

Today suddently I encounter a problem with Enigmail and GnuPG where I no
longer can encrypt or use this service since thunderbird cannot
initualize the service. I googled this issue and couldn't find a right
solution.

On the website of Enigmail, I found a topic related to the case where
the recent version of Enigmail that mine seems to updated itself last 3
days, only works with GnuPG 2.x and higher version. I checked the
versions on my linux and found out that I have both Gpg and gpg2. so I
uninstalled the gpg and rebooted the system so that thunderbird can
automatically detect the new gpg. it did but still it cannot use Enigmail.

The log file show me this error

Error: uncaught exception: 2147500037
Source File:
file:////.thunderbird/308g2vvu.default/extensions/%7B847b3a00-7ab1-11d4-8f02-006008948af5%7D/components/enigmail.js
Line: 285

that by clicking on that

        holder.svc.initialize(win, EnigmailApp.getVersion());

        try {
          // Reset alert count to default value
          EnigmailPrefs.getPrefBranch().clearUserPref("initAlert");
        }
        catch (ex) {}
      }
      catch (ex) {
        if (firstInitialization) {
          // Display initialization error alert
          const errMsg = (holder.svc.initializationError ? 
holder.svc.initializationError : EnigmailLocale.getString("accessError")) +
            "\n\n" + EnigmailLocale.getString("initErr.howToFixIt");

in shell, I can easily run gpg2 command without any problem and with normal 
user. I do not know what the problem is.
I would appreciate any help that you can provide.
Thanks,
