Cannot encrypt/decrypt zip-Files correctly (Andreas)

[Joseph Bruni]

By gpg I'm assuming you mean the gpg executable? If gpg is installed in=20=

/usr/local/bin and your key files are in /usr/home/andreas/.gnupg, your=20=

command line would look like this:


/usr/local/bin/gpg --homedir /usr/home/andreas/.gnupg -o \
   /path/to/file/data.gpg -e --default-recipient andreas

The web server will need to have read access to the entire path of=20
/usr/home/andreas/.gnupg/pubring.gpg

Assuming your web server runs as "nobody" you can do this:

sudo su - nobody

if [ -r /usr/home/andreas/.gnupg/pubring.gpg ]; then
   echo "is readable"
fi
