Topic: GPG.KEY error

[seeblet]

hi again,

i have an error (which i have done a search on this time    and can't find any assistance) and was wondering if one of you may be able to assist please. we are getting this error:


>>>>



/etc/cron.daily/sa_update:

error: GPG validation failed!
The update downloaded successfully, but it was not signed with a trusted GPG
key.  Instead, it was signed with the following keys:

    24F434CE

Perhaps you need to import the channel's GPG key?  For example:

    wget http://spamassassin.apache.org/updates/GPG.KEY
    sa-update --import GPG.KEY

channel: GPG validation failed, channel failed

>>>>



Does this mean i type this at the command prompt?


    wget http://spamassassin.apache.org/updates/GPG.KEY
    sa-update --import GPG.KEY


thanks...

    wget http://spamassassin.apache.org/updates/GPG.KEY
    sa-update --import GPG.KEY

Yes, but wait for the file to download before issuing the sa-update.... command

appreciate your time again,
you rock,

I have also received this error. My server has NO modifications, and I have always installed the updates as soon as they are available.

This GPG.KEY error has resulted in a substantial increase in SPAM being received.

Can somebody explain if this is a known error.

James,  there is a bug at the moment looking at this issue:

If you can document that this error has resulted in substantial increase of spams, please fill a new bug report about it.  This is new and may be of interest to the Dev team.  Thanks.
