I am a new GPG user. I have looked everywhere (manuals, bug site, mailing lists, Google search, etc.) for information on this error, but have been unsuccessful. My guess is that there is a simple solution to such a basic error right out of the chute, but I need some help finding that answer. Could someone please help me learn how to navigate through this?
I downloaded the GPG4Win binaries (gpg4win-1.1.3.exe). I have installed everything in the package including GnuPG2 and Claws-Mail on three of my computers and have not encountered any issues. Unfortunately, however, I am having a show stopper on the one computer that needs to have this up and running the most. After installation I get an error when I try to create the first key pair using WinPT, GPA or the gpg command line. It does not seem to matter what options I use during the gpg -gen-key process. They all error out in the same fashion: "Unhandled exception at 0x0210342a in gpg.exe: 0xC0000005: Access violation reading location 0x0210342a." When using GPA it follows with the following error: "The GPGME library returned an unexpected error. The error was: General error This is probably a bug in GPA. GPA will now try to recover from this error." Here is some basic system configuration information on the machine that is not working: System Information report written at: 04/16/08 06:43:13 [System Summary] Item Value OS Name Microsoft Windows XP Professional Version 5.1.2600 Service Pack 2 Build 2600 OS Manufacturer Microsoft Corporation System Manufacturer ASUS System Model Canterwood+ICH5 System Type X86-based PC Processor x86 Family 15 Model 2 Stepping 5 GenuineIntel ~2405 Mhz Processor x86 Family 15 Model 2 Stepping 5 GenuineIntel ~2405 Mhz Processor x86 Family 15 Model 2 Stepping 5 GenuineIntel ~2405 Mhz Processor x86 Family 15 Model 2 Stepping 5 GenuineIntel ~2405 Mhz BIOS Version/Date Phoenix Technologies, LTD ASUS PC-DL ACPI BIOS Revision 1008, 11/15/2004 SMBIOS Version 2.3 Windows Directory C:\WINDOWS System Directory C:\WINDOWS\system32 Boot Device \Device\HarddiskVolume9 Locale United States Hardware Abstraction Layer Version = "5.1.2600.2180 (xpsp_sp2_rtm.040803-2158)" Total Physical Memory 2,048.00 MB Total Virtual Memory 2.00 GB Page File Space 3.85 GB Page File C:\pagefile.sys
