  • 1.  gpg: decryption failed: Bad session key

    Dear Friends,

    I am getting following error message during full import. 

    [root@impmx-kn-p7 bin]# gpg --cipher-algo=3DES --no-mdc-warning -q -o decrypted-file-name /backup/mxbackup/impmx-kn-p8/Maycrash/SecureSphereFullExport_20220513-234500_6974056972616081540.tgz
    can't connect to `/root/.gnupg/S.gpg-agent': No such file or directory
    gpg: DBG: cleared passphrase cached with ID: S79FC2BEC69BB5629
    gpg: decryption failed: Bad session key

    If I forgot the key then how I can recover it?

    Kind Regards,

    Ghulam
