Automating Decryption using gpg --batch --passphrase-file or gpg --batch --passphrase-fd 0

[guk guk]

Hi Hardeep!
Thanks for your reply.
I did try your suggestion and It didn't work.
It still throwing the same error .
Can you tell more about the key setup?
What kind of procedure i need to follow so i can run gpg in SQL Job?
Thanks

Hi

The first method is incorrect. Correct usage of --passphrase-fd is as below:

gpg --batch --decrypt --passphrase-fd 0 --output output.csv
output.csv.pgp <passphrase.txt

The second seems ok. Yet, since its not working it could be a problem
with the key setup. Can the file be decrypted in the interactive mode
on the same machine without problems?

Regards
Hardeep
