Everything works fine if I set the full path. If I use relative paths and try, for instance, gpg --search-keys u...@domain.tld, I get the following: gpg: searching for "u...@domain.tld" from hkps server hkps.foo.tld gpgkeys: HTTP search error 77: gpg: key "u...@domain.tld" not found on keyserver gpg: keyserver internal error gpg: keyserver search failed: keyserver error > tell us what > version of gpg you are using (gpg --version). 1.4.20 I can also see I have 2.1.11 installed. However, I always use the gpg command, I have never used the gpg2 command. I have just tried now: $ gpg2 --search-keys u...@domain.tld gpg: keyserver option 'ca-cert-file' is obsolete; please use 'hkp-cacert' in dirmngr.conf gpg: failed to start the dirmngr '/usr/bin/dirmngr': No such file or directory gpg: connecting dirmngr at '/home/Alice/.gnupg/S.dirmngr' failed: No such file or directory gpg: error searching keyserver: No dirmngr gpg: keyserver search failed: No dirmngr So it seems I have version 2 installed, but not that dirmngr thing. > > Note: Since gnupg 2.1 the above option is obsolete and has no effect. > You need to configure non-standard CA certificates in dirmngr.conf > instead. > Just in case you are still using gpg 1.4.x: You may very weel run > into problems with that if you try to access keyservers. What kind of problems? I never had a problem when the full path was set. Will relative paths work if I use version 2? In that case, what should I do for the upgrade? Any explanation or link is welcome, I don't know anything about version 2 and that dirmngr file. Thanks.
