GPG Deblocking problem

GPG Deblocking problem

We are testing decryption of a PGP file using GPG 1.2.6 in an HPUX 11.0 environment.

Smaller files work fine but the larger ones seem to have a blocking problem.

The error message is generated:

gpg: fatal: zlib inflate problem: invalid block type secmem usage: 1760/2368 bytes in 4/7 blocks of pool 2656/32768

gpg: encrypted with 1024-bit ELG-E key, ID A7B3B82F, created 2004-10-21

Any ideas?

Re: GPG Deblocking problem

Some ideas:
- what's your ulimit?
- do the kernel params allow those large files (maxdsize)?
- are the files >2GB?
- does the FS support large files?
- is zlib large file enabled?
- did it work in 1.2.5?

and finally:
There are differences between PGP and GPG.
I remember, I saw some "compatibility options"
in GPG. Check the documentation.
And now for something completely different...
