<p>welcome to the GPGTools support platform. Sorry you are having problems using GPG Suite.</p>
<p>Can you post the key server URL you are using? Find that in GPG Keychain > Preferences > Key server</p>
<p>Are you behind a firewall or using any blocking software?</p>
<p>Best,<br>

No block on outbound traffic</p>
<p>Thanks</p>

<p>would it be possible to send us the address of the keyserver?<br>
It's possible this is related to a certificate error, but if we know the keyserver we can have a more detailed look into your problems.</p></div>Luke Letag:gpgtools.tenderapp.com,2011-11-04:Comment/435741002017-09-27T12:36:27Z2017-09-27T12:36:27ZNot connecting to SKS Keystore<div><p>There is currently no certificate installed and is only responding on 11371.</p>
<p>URL is keys.shiggles.co.uk:11371</p>
<p>Appreciate the help :)</p>

<p>sorry I was about to write a response.<br>
No need to rebuild, you simply have to add the keyserver manually at the moment.</p>
<p>You can do this by editing your gpg.conf file (in ~/.gnupg) and adding the following line:</p>
<p><code>keyserver hkp://keys.shiggles.co.uk:11371</code></p>
<p>And remove any other keyserver lines<br>
After that it should work.</p>
<p>We're about to add a ticket to improve our check for valid key servers. Yours resulted in an error even though it's working properly.</p></div>Luke Letag:gpgtools.tenderapp.com,2011-11-04:Comment/435741002017-09-27T16:48:28Z2017-09-27T16:48:28ZNot connecting to SKS Keystore<div><p>Luke</p>
<p>Thanks for your reply, will give it a go and let you know how it goes</p>
<p>Many thanks</p>

<p>I updated the gpg suite to v1.4 (which others are using) and edited the file as suggested.</p>
<p>This has made no difference I still get the error message 'Bad Key Server'</p>
<p>Thanks</p>

Check the box to "attach debug log". Since you already described your issue in this discussion, you don't need to add a lot of detail, but please do add the link to your existing discussion, so I can then merge your debug info with this existing discussion.</p>
<p>All the best,<br>

<p>we've fixed some things around the key server check.</p>
<p>Could you please download and install our latest <a href="https://releases.gpgtools.org/nightlies/">GPG Suite nightly build</a> and see if the problem persists. That page also has sig and SHA256 to verify the download.</p>
<p>All the best,<br>
