0.4.0 Release is not working anymore

Error executing command: unable to generate website: unexpected error: openpgp: signature made by unknown entity

I'm not able to find any resource saying that the 0.4.0 version will stop working going forward.

---

Solution: Upgrade to the latest 0.13.0

Hi @dineshhg 👋 Thank you for reporting this and sorry you ran into trouble here.

What I suspect happened here was part of https://discuss.hashicorp.com/t/terraform-updates-for-hcsec-2021-12/23570, where new Terraform patch releases were created due to a security concern. The terraform-plugin-docs generate command relies on calling Terraform CLI to get the documentation out of the provider except when the recent -provider-schema flag is used. If the terraform-plugin-docs project was to introduce any breaking changes, they would be announced in the changelog and release notes, but in this case it was a Terraform CLI issue so there was no announcement. I think the best thing in this case was to do exactly what you did, raise a GitHub bug report here.

Since there is nothing actionable here, except potentially making the error messaging clear about the issue being with Terraform CLI (already covered by #136), I'm going to close this issue. We do really appreciate the report and solution though -- it likely helped others.
