[jira] [Updated] (MGPG-59) GPG Plugin: "gpg: signing failed:
Inappropriate ioctl for device"
[ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MGPG-59?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]
Paul Hammant updated MGPG-59:
-----------------------------
Description:
Some versions and configurations of GPG want to pop an interactive UI, which the maven-gpg-plugin cannot handle. This appears in the log, before Maven quits without much advice.
"gpg: signing failed: Inappropriate ioctl for device"
*The remedy is for the user to do something with gpg on the command line before going into mvn-release:prepare*. Something that will allow gpg to remember (for a period of time) the passphrase entered in that interactive UI, that the maven invocation of gpg can take advantage of afterwards.
Historically there was a gpg option '--no-use-agent', but not all gpg implementations support that today, not will going forwards as it is being removed.
Suggestion: On command error, System.out.println the remedy above.
