  • 1.  Warning: PGPsdk running in local mode, Linux RedHat, CommandLine

    Regardless of the command being issued... I get PGPsdk running in local mode... and the command takes FOR EVER to execute.

    $ date; pgp --version; date

    What can I do to correct this situation?

    I'm not sure why you are running in local mode.  Is "pgp-agent" in your path, and do you have execute permissions on it?

    As for the delay issue, if you set

     

    ulimit -n 2000
    does the issue go away?

    pgp-agent IS in the path, as it is in the same directory as the 'pgp' executable itself.  It also has the same protections as 'pgp'

    Changing ulimit does nothing for me either.

    If adjusting ulimit doesn't help, then this is not an issue we've seen before.  I'm curious, if you run with "--local-mode" explicitly, do you still see the delay?

    Also, try using strace, and see if that can help you determine the problem with pgp-agent and where the delay is occurring.
