[~/incoming]$>etl gpg --passphrase /home/etlrun/decrypt_passphrase.pw --decrypt 20230116.pgp ... gpg: public key decryption failed: Permission denied gpg: decryption failed: No secret key
Below action fixes the above error:
(The tty command basically prints the file name of the terminal connected to standard input.)
[~/incoming]$>chmod o+rw `tty`
[~/incoming]$>etl gpg --passphrase /home/etlrun/decrypt_passphrase.pw --decrypt 20230116.pgp ...... gpg: public key decryption failed: Operation cancelled gpg: decryption failed: No secret key
This time, a dialogue window appears, saying:
Please enter the passphrase to unlock the OpenPGP secret key:
Below command can decrypt the file successfully:
[~/incoming]$>etl gpg --trust-model always --no-secmem-warning --batch --yes --passphrase-file /home/etlrun/decrypt_passphrase.pw --pinentry-mode loopback --decrypt-file 20230116.pgp
The order of the parameters matters.
If use --decrypt without --output, the decrypted files will be written to standard output.
[~/incoming]$>etl gpg -r ebnrun --trust-model always --no-secmem-warning --batch --yes --output test.txt.pgp --encrypt test.txt
--encrypt encrypt a single file, so can be used with --output
--eycrypt-file encrypts multiple files, so can not be used with --output
