Help!! Just last week I was able to decrypt files for our Vendor. I
tried this morning and now I get the message below. The only changes
that occurred was that another vendor key was added last week. The
ELG-E Key is the same the message was encrypted with. Any insight to
this message is appreciated. I read a few articles and it stated to
delete secret key but I am not comfortable with deleting any key without
some kind of guidance since I am a rookie at gpg. Anyway I am confused
as to why I would need to delete the secret key when nothing has changed
for this vendor.
gpg: key 9EDEB618: secret key without public key - skipped
gpg: encrypted with ELG-E key, ID BEA2D168
gpg: decryption failed: secret key not available
Thank you in advance for any help that you can provide
Connie
The actual error is:
gpg: encrypted with ELG-E key, ID BEA2D168
gpg: decryption failed: secret key not available
It appears that another key being added was not the only thing that
occurred and someone has deleted the secret key the message was
encrypted to. Do you have a backup to re-import?
