While automating encryption I faced the following issues.
$ gpg -q --yes -e -r Hasim File.txt
gpg: C2E7FAEF: There is no indication that this key really belongs to the owner
1024g/C2E7FAEF 2006-04-24 "Abul Hasim Molla "
Primary key fingerprint: B294 D02D D129 6224 B522 AE1F 4918 1E24 020C 23DC
Subkey fingerprint: 729E 52BF A281 0B2C 2073 7E27 262E DD2B 22E7 FCDF
It is NOT certain that the key belongs to the person named
in the user ID. If you *really* know what you are doing,
you may answer the next question with yes
Use this key anyway? y
I tried with so many options of gpg like as --no-tty,-q,---yes and so on.
Finally I solved it as follows:-
1/ You have to say that you trust the key and know the recipient well. Thats the solution.
To do so:-
gpg --edit-key NAME
$gpg --edit-key Hasim

Means your key status as per gpg is undefined and unknown.
2/ And then you will be take to the command mode.
Command> trust

Please decide how far you trust this user to correctly
verify other users' keys (by looking at passports,
checking fingerprints from different sources...)?
1 = Don't know
2 = I do NOT trust
3 = I trust marginally
4 = I trust fully
5 = I trust ultimately
m = back to the main menu
Your decision?
3/ Say you trust him/her.
Your decision? 5
Do you really want to set this key to ultimate trust? y

Please note that the shown key validity is not necessarily correct
unless you restart the program.
Command>quit
And your problem is resolved.Labels: Technical_HowTo_Unix
