Hi,

I've just installed GPGTools (selected everything during the installation) from latest .dmg file from the link

http://www.gpgtools.org/

When I tried to create the new key pair for gmail account I received the error

"Generate new key failed! (Invalid IPC response) Code = 260."

Any help to resolve this?

I've attached some pictures of the error message, GPG Keychain access version and my Mac version.

In words I'm using Mac OS X 10.7.3, GPG Keychain Access Version 1.0b7 (1.0b7).

    Hey Michael,

    sorry you are having trouble with your key creating. Let's try to pin down where the problem is coming from.

    gpg2 --version
    gpg --version
    gpg2 --gen-key

    The last command requires you to click through some questions.

    Please post the output in this discussion.

    Cheerios :)
