[Kolab-devel] [issue4488] Kleopatra/DirMngr: 'File exists' error while S/MIME signing file - no audit log

[Emanuel Schuetze]

New submission from Emanuel Schuetze <emanuel at intevation.de>:

Tested with gpg4win-2.1.0-svn1497 + kleo 2.1.0-svn1156672.

Scenario "Sign file with S/MIME":
1. install gpg4win and start kleo
2. import X.509 certificate A (chain + secret key)
3. try to sign a file with (A) via GpgEX (= SMIME only)
=> failure (I): Details show "File exists" error (see screenshot). No audit log
available!

4. enable "allow mark trusted" option (in Kleo's config dialog)
5. kill gpg-agent
6. restart kleo
7. answer pinentry (allow mark trusted) question with "yes" + "correct"
8. try to sign a file with (A)
=> same failure as (I)

9. restart DirMngr (via Windows "Dienste" dialog)
10. do refresh (F5) in kleo
-> now root certificate is trustable (blue)
11. try to sign a file with (A)
=> same failure as (I)

12. restart DirMngr again
13. try to sign a file with (A)
14. enter passphrase of (A) into pinentry
=> File successfully signed!


Some Questions:
a) Why audit log is missing (step 3+8+11)? 
=> Marc?

b) What should "File exists" mean (step 3+8+11)? A DirMngr problem?

c) Why gpg-agent has to restart manually by log out/in? (Expected: gpg-agents
restarts automatically if needed after enabling allow-mark-trusted option.)

d) Why DirMngr has to restart 2 times (step 9+12)? (Expected: DirMngr restarts
automatically if needed after enabling allow-mark-trusted option.)
