GPG passphrase always refused

[arichiardi]

Hi again!

It seems like there could be a problem with keys/subkeys because every time I insert my gpg passphrase I receive a:

gpg passphrase: 
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.Exception: gpg: signing failed: Bad passphrase
gpg: signing failed: Bad passphrase

Is there any additional setting for gpg signing?

Everything else works fine so I exclude a setup problem in my bash variables for gpg.

Unfortunately I have a very limited knowledge of gpg, but:
Running

$ gpg --batch --pinentry-mode loopback --passphrase-fd 0 --armour --detach-sign <a file of your choosing>

from the terminal will prompt you (without a prompt) to enter your pgp passphrase (which will be output in cleartext):

$ gpg --batch --pinentry-mode loopback --passphrase-fd 0 --armour --detach-sign project.clj
<passphrase redacted>
$

Worked for me, so I guess the question is if it works for you?

It seems like it was a problem on my end actually, so I had two gpg signing keys and apparently I was inputing the wrong password, sorry about that, closing!

Cool, I'm just happy it wasn't my fault :)
