Yes gpg-agent is started before, I can see it in the process list (and even the scdaemon process).
In fact, pageant can't be started at the same time as gpg-agent (I suppose it share the same mutex because it
says "pageant is already running" when I try to start pageant while gpg-agent is already running).
Did you start gpg-agent before putty or pageant?
and there is no w64 version of 1.4
We won't fix such things for 1.4 (Windows)
I believe I have also seen this issue (or something very similar) on my Windows
7 64bit machine. I am running gpg 2.1.11. I hope this isn't redundant, but it
seems that I need to restart scdaemon anytime I unplug/replug my yubikey or
suspend/resume my computer.
Sometimes it doesn't recover even after restarting scdaemon. In those cases, I
am able to fix it by stopping scdaemon, removing the yubikey, starting scdaemon,
and finally reinserting the yubikey.
I've tested it with pubring now too and it works.
Justus mentioned in jabber that he noticed some more errors after this patch in
the scheme tests. I've not tried them.
Okay, so I can backport this to 2.0 ?
Tested this with keybox and it appears to be working. When running a keylist
while importing the import holds for a bit and continues after the keylist.
Not tested this with keyring yet.
MDK7MX, did you retry ?
I commited an adjusted patch for GnuPG 2.1 (3e50236).
I have pushed chnages to master to fix this problem. One drawback is that
during an import another process "gpg -k" may rarely see no keys at all. A full
fix would either require that we lock the keyrings during all read-only
operations, which would severely hit on the performance of all common
operations, or change the whole system to use a new key access daemon.
If this works the changes need to be backported to 2.0.
No Kleopatra does not open the pubring. Let's leave kleopatra out of this.
This bug is about multiple GnuPG processes that conflict with each other. See
msg7466 for an example.
Do you mean Kleo opens the pubring file itself?
Renamed the issue to my current understanding of this problem. Locking on
Windows does not work properly.
Yesterday I had a failed Keygeneration while GpgOL's certificate selection
dialog in Kleopatra was open. Tried again and it worked. I did not get Debug
output but the pattern suggests to me that the Certificate selection dialog
looked for changes in the pubring while generating a key and the locking broke
again.
This problem is rising in my priority of Windows Issues as it causes random
failures. There is also a load of similar reports on various channels to be
found through google https://www.google.at/search?q=pubring.bak
Thank you again.
It is likely that the token itself doesn't work well after wakeup from sleep
mode. In this case, all that we can do is re-inserting the token manually.
I'm not sure how PC/SC service handles USB reset after wakeup.
Sorry to say, but mapping the error to "no reader" doesn't help. The first
reset event doesn't get handled. Later it trys to remove the reader but it's
not getting correctly resetted/reinserted again.
I've attached the debug log again
Thank you for further testing.
I think that current code doesn't handle the case when card goes inactive/reset
while reader keeps working. Current code only goes to the reset sequence for a
card again when it detects reader failure. So, although the concept is
different, I think mapping PSCS_W_CARD_RESET to SW_HOST_NO_READER (for now) will
work. Given the situation we don't yet support multiple cards, this workaround
would be OK for a while.
Nope. Neither mapping the "reset card" event to SW_HOST_CARD_INACTIVE or
SW_HOST_NO_CARD helps. It seems that somewhere in the code the return code
SW error codes are not being handled correctly and the card doesn't get
resetted.
I've attached a small log where you can see that pcsc returns the error
reason "reset card" which then gets remapped to "Card reset required" (was
general error before). I also can see that the error is getting mapped to
GPG_ERR_CARD_RESET (because of the error message "Card reset required")
leaving the daemon around with no working card and reporting general errors
again (0x100b).
Additional Info: This bug only happens when you put your computer/laptop
into sleep mode while the smartcard/reader (yubikey) is plugged in. If I
remove the reader before putting it to sleep and attaching it after getting
out of the sleep mode, the scdaemon works fine.
Maybe it's more appropriate to map the PSCS_W_CARD_RESET event to the
SW_HOST_CARD_INACTIVE error code which later gets mapped to GPG_ERR_CARD_RESET
error code.
I've attached the patch file. It would make sense to backport this mapping as
well. Right now it's not yet tested.
I found another problem with the smartcard service under windows. Putting
the system into sleep mode and waking it up again creates an 0x80100068
error code (aka PCSC_W_RESET_CARD).
I'll test if it helps to map the RESET_CARD event to the same REMOVE_CARD
event to get the card reactivated after sleep mode.

I think that this was fixed in:
http://git.gnupg.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?p=gnupg.git;a=commit;h=d1a97585c5e73fbc7d4cf90e38f76ffc5aea305f
It will be in 2.1.11 and 2.0.30.
Hi Neal, I am not able to reproduce the issue with GnuPG 2.1.10 anymore.
Hello Andre,
I've checked that 2.1.10 still has the problem. So back to you.
You can ping me directly if you need any debug logs or so.
Thanks for helping keep track of all these issues.
Yes this only fixes the problem that has already been fixed in the last Gpg4win
Versions. So that this will be fixed in future gnupg-2.1 versions.
Still to help us better seperate the problems I would like to close this as for
me this bug was about "Wrong encoding in a localized version".
- the more critical "passphrase with non ASCII characters" problem (as reported
only here, see T1691 (andreaerdna on Aug 19 2014, 02:36 AM / Roundup)); does this bug need a
dedicated new Issue to be addressed and solved?
I actually overlooked this in this issue. Can you please open another issue for
that. And add me to the Nosy.
- the "utf-8 encoding of encrypted filenames" / "strange behaviour of --utf8-
strings, --no-utf8-strings and --charset options" (as reported in Issue 1409 ad
probably similar to Gpgtar Issue 1624 / Gpa Issue 2185)
If this problem was still existing with gpg4win this is still a problem.
- the "charset weirdness searching keyserver for some non-ASCII user IDs under
non-UTF-8 locales" (as reported in Issue 1514).
This appears not to be windows specific. Also I think this works except for
cases where the Key in question is problematic. If I search on windows for
emanuel@intevation.de I get the correct Umlauts shown. Might be a Problem though
for characters that are unrepresentable in the 8 Bit codepage.
It sounds great!
So this patch, as the previous one, solves the "incorrect display of GPG 2
output translated into another language" (as reported here and previously also
in Issue 1373 and Issue 1674).
Does this patch solve also the "incorrect display of filenames with non ASCII
characters" (as reported here and previously also in Issue 1409)?
By the way, as I understand, this patch doesn't fix:
only here, see T1691 (andreaerdna on Aug 19 2014, 02:36 AM / Roundup)); does this bug need a
dedicated new Issue to be addressed and solved?
strings, --no-utf8-strings and --charset options" (as reported in Issue 1409 ad
probably similar to Gpgtar Issue 1624 / Gpa Issue 2185)
non-UTF-8 locales" (as reported in Issue 1514).
After some more discussion and testing in the development jabber channel werner
agreed to include this patch. Pushed to libgpg-error with 823e858. So this will
hopefully be part of the first gnupg modern release that will include localization.
Btw. this was patched in Gpg4win for over a year now. So I expect we would have
heard if this caused regressions.
I've opened T2185 for the GPA Problem so i can change the topic here and we
can cleanly close this issue when the gpgtar fix is applied upstream.
We might also want to create a new fix for UTF-16 support in gpgtar once this is
closed. But the attached patch would improve the current situation already a lot.
Updated Patch against libgpg-error where this code now lives.
Please apply this patch or something similiar.
The problem I can see is that with this code in libgpg-error now GUI
applications may use it which want to get "GUI Native".
Probably better to introduce a new function "wchar_to_console" ? And use it from
GnuPG. Does GPA use that conversion function?
Might be a good time for this now where gnupg master already depends on new
symbols in libgpg-error.
Thank you for your testing.
Your change is pushed with my comment:
http://git.gnupg.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?p=gnupg.git;a=commit;h=d1a97585c5e73fbc7d4cf90e38f76ffc5aea305f
I'll backport this to GnuPG 2.0.
Here's the logfile with all the errors (guru debug level) vanilla 2.1.10
After some time spending fighting with the build tools of gnupg (cross compile
for windows under debian) I managed to build the installer with my patched
file.
Most important: The most common error thrown is the 0x8010001e
(E_SERVICE_STOPPED) This is the important one. The other error 0x8010001d
(E_NO_SERVICE) is only thrown in the transition from ok to stopped. So only
sometimes.
git clone git://git.gnupg.org/gnupg.git
cd gnupg
git checkout tags/gnupg-2.1.10
./autogen.sh
cat ../0001-scd-Fix-removal-of-unplugged-usb-readers.patch | patch -p1
sed -i -e 's/^SELFCHECK=1/SELFCHECK=0/' build-aux/speedo.mk
make -f build-aux/speedo.mk w32-installer
I've created new logfiles (vanilla 2.1.10 und patched 2.1.10) to show the
difference and confirm that it'S actually working now :-)
I'm okay with signing off the commit. I can test this for Windows 8.1 or 10,
my only problem is that I'm not able to compile gpg for windows right now. Or
are there instructions somewhere on how to achieve this?
Thank you again.
I think that Windows 8 (and later) changed the PC/SC service. The service is
only available when smartcard is there, and after the removal, it returns
PCSC_E_NO_SERVICE error. This is not expected for current code.
I'm applying your patch with my comment like above. Do you agree to put the
line in the commit log?:
Signed-off-by: Daniel Hoffend <dh@dotlan.net>
I don't have Windows 8 machine. So, I leave this issue as testing.
No, I just installed version 2.1.10 (which included your mentioned fix). But the
error still applies.
In my case the smartcard reader never gets closed, cause the error thrown by the
pcsc/scd gets only mapped to a general_error which does not result in
removing/closing the reader interface.
I've the feeling that we've to take a closer look at the errors thrown (at least
those 2 in my patch). Maybe there're even more possible events.
If you like I can upload the debug log of scdaemon 2.1.10 ... (if that helps).
Somehow I don't have any issues when running linux, this bug applies to windows
only atm. Maybe it's just that windows is throwing different errors or events
compared to linux.
Thank you for the bug report with log.
It could be related to the bug which was just fixed:
http://git.gnupg.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?p=gnupg.git;a=commitdiff;h=f42c50dbf00c2e6298ca6830cbe6d36805fa54a3
I'm backporting this to 2.0.x.
After looking at the gnupg 2.0 branch I would say the patch could be applied
to the 2.0 and 2.1 branch to fix the issue in both branches stable/modern
since both version are affected (tested with 2.1.9 and 2.0.29 from gpg2win)
More difficult then I thought.
For PGP/Inline this should currently work. I had the problem that I can't
manipulate the Body in MAPI but over Outlook in the write event this worked.
PGP/Clearsigned support i've disabled for now.
With regards to mime mails:
I could modify / restore the mail there already using old code. The message
is not formed correctly but this looks like just a bug in the revert code.
As it turns out this was totally an understatement ;-) The old revert code can't
have worked. Maybe for S/MIME under some circumstances but otherwise not.
The problem is the main part how Outlook builds the MIME message. Were we have
very limited control about it. Just removing our attachments and leaving the
original MIME attachment leads to a MIME structure like:
<quote>
This is a multipart message in MIME format.

This is nothing even an MUA like KMail can handle. And GpgOL can handle this
neither. So if we modify the message we have to do it somehow in a way that
Outlook builds a Mime structure again that users can work with.
As we can actually send MIME messages I looked at the code in mimemaker that
builds a message. Using some tricks from there I was able to recreate a PGP/MIME
mail. But this needs special handling for all our message classes.
Still too buggy to commit. Leaks plaintext and I have at least seen that it led
to a duplicated message once.
I just double checked the code from 2.1 - it looks really okay.
I need to look at the 2.x branch, though.
Modifying the mail in the afterwrite event did not work good. While the
attachment changes were synced to the server Outlook itself didn't reparse the
mail correctly. This let to a weird out of sync situation between MAPI and OOM.
But testing looks like this could work from the Write event indeed. Which would
be even better because we only have one write and we could replace the "Wipe
Message" code completely by just reverting the mail back to the original.
I'm optimistic this can be done. :-)
It's a bit iffy though and might be especially annoying from a performance side
for exchange users. Still it will be better then the Status Quo because you can
still use the mails with other clients.
The trick is not to revert back the message in the Write event, as we have to
work on the OOM in the Write event but in the AfterWrite event where we can work
on MAPI.
I could modify / restore the mail there already using old code. The message is
not formed correctly but this looks like just a bug in the revert code.
Test data from: http://keyserver.borgnet.us/dump/sks-dump-0000.pgp.bz2

In this case I'm pretty sure that it does not. I check that I can come up with a
testcase that does not involve kleo.
Is Kleopatra messing around with files in ~/.gnupg in any way? IIRC, Kleo
sometimes bypasses gpgme. For example does it open pubring.gpg ?
As Werner stated, this appears to be a user support inquiry, which is better
answered elsewhere. As such, I'm marking this issue as resolved.
gp_ast: have you gotten a chance to try this?
While Werner mentioned that he might have solved this in previous versions I'm
not seeing this in the code. I'll have to test with GPA as it might be that
progress information causes gpgol to temporarily yield the event loop.
Tested this and GPA also blocks Outlook the same way as Kleo. Which was expected
as the blocking happens in GpgOL.
I've disabled the automatic keylisting while an import job is running in
Kleopatra as this is a good idea anyway.
Still this should be fixed although we might want to give it a try with 2.1
instead as it is no longer a hard issue for gpg4win with the workarond in kleo
in place.
The import with 2.0.29 is also very slow on Windows. Over two minutes to import
650 keys while the same import with 2.1.9 on GNU/Linux only takes 20seconds.
Fixed with: b942f73
If GpgOL is deactivated it cleans up after itself and wipes the plaintext from
mails / session encrypts attachments.
If that fails it shows a warning message.
