> gpg: key xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx: error sending to agent: Not enough space

That is a ENOMEM which is commonly returned for a failed malloc call.
Could happen at a lot of places.

Try:

gpg-connect-agent -v

and tehre a command like "getinfo version" to check whether tehre is a
problem with the IPC connection.

gpgconf -L

also gives important information.

> c:\> gpg --version
> gpg (GnuPG) 2.2.15

That version is pretty old and in terms of IPC ("error sending to
agent") one idfference is that this version uses %APPDATA%\gnupg for the
socket files but modern versions use %LOCALAPPDATA%\gnupg.

Hi,

I tried the command you gave and the results are as follows:

C:\> gpg-connect-agent -v
> getinfo version
D 2.4.5
OK
> gpgconf -L
ERR 67109139 Unknown IPC command <GPG Agent>

I downloaded and installed gpg4win from the official website, and the
signature/sha-256 of the installer matches.

Thanks

Okay, that works.

>> gpgconf -L
> ERR 67109139 Unknown IPC command <GPG Agent>

Please enter this on the command line not at the gpg-connect-agent
prompt.

Hi!

On Tue, 9 Apr 2024 12:21, Moses said:
> C:\>gpgconf -L

which merely shows that you installed the software on d:\software and
kep the user data at the usual C: directories. I see nothing strange.

To recap your problem was:

c:\> gpg --import private-keys.asc
gpg: enabled compatibility flags:
[snipped]
gpg: key xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx: error sending to agent: Not enough space

I don't known why you get that error which might hint at a out of memory
(not out of disk space) problem. We could look at the output of

gpgconf -V

and

gpgconf -X

but I doubt that this will show anything useful for your case. Can you
start kleopatra? If so, what does its selftest tell?

What you can do is:

gpgconf -K all

to stop all background processes (or use the taskmgr or logout and in
again).

cd %APPDATA%
ren gnupg gnupg.save
cd %LOCALAPPDATA%
ren gnupg gnupg.save

and then try agin. If this does work you might have insufficent
permissions somewhere below %APPDATA%\gnupg . If kleopatra starts you
can also teh DbgViewer tool from Sysinternals to see the diagnostics
from Kleopatra.


Shalom-Salam,

Werner

Hi,

I see in your PATH

D:\software\GNU\GnuWin32\bin

prior to

D:\software\GNU\Gpg4win\..\GnuPG\bin

May it be that you use a gpg version picked up from the GnuWin32? Check
also whether there is a gpg binary in the Git program directory.

My educated guess is that Gnuwin32 is a Cygwin based collection of
utilities which might also include gpg. Cygwin uses a slightly
different and incompatiple socket emulation which would explain the
error your get. As a workaround you may try to run

D:\software\GNU\GnuPG\bin\gpg --import foo

to use the correct gpg.


Shalom-Salam,

Werner

Hi,

I checked my D:\software\GNU\GnuWin32\bin. There is no gpg.exe in it,
only gpg-error.exe and gpg-error-config. But there is gpg.exe in my
git folder. I adjusted the PATH and temporarily removed it. Then I
tried to import again, and the same error still occurred. The same
error happened when I tried to directly execute the
D:\software\GNU\GnuPG\bin\gpg --import command.

Well, I have no more idea on how to debug this by mail :-(.

On Linux you would now use strace and on Windows we have the
sysinternals tools to trace the system calls. And there is printf
debugging - I would here start with libassuan (src/assuan-socket.c).


Salam-Shalom,

Werner
