Cant save new passwords in QTPass

[tomwgf]

Hi
i had to reinstall linux at the weekend and though i can still see my passwords (it asked for the old passwords which i had) in QTPass, it wont let me add new ones or edit old ones.

I am very worried about losing them all.

Is there a safe way to fix the problem? (i am not technical and need step by step advice?)

Do you still have your private Key?

[tomwgf]

not sure - i have two gpg files, that i imported.
and though qtpass does keep askeing each monring for the password to access the list of passwords, i can see them.
but i cant edit or save new ones

I'm on Fedora 41 desktop and me too not able to save password using qtpass.
This are 2 error (2 distinct try to edit a psw):

Signature for /home/leonardo/.password-store/familykey//./.gpg-id does not exist.
Signature for /home/leonardo/.password-store/familykey//Leonardo/hosts/net/uffalg/orion/users/.gpg-id does not exist.

notice the double //

If I use the pass command by bash prompt, all work well: read and write without issues.

The key on gnome keyring are good and trusted full

qtpass can read password but cannot write.

on User form, the right key is checked.

on profile form, I have only ones, pointing to /home/leonardo/.password-store/familykey/

The Signing key ID on the profile row is right and is the same that I have choose on user form,
and the same on gnome keyring
and the same on every .gpg-id files

I have one in /home/leonardo/.password-store/.gpg-id and
one in /home/leonardo/.password-store/familykey/.gpg-id
same value (the gnome keyring ID key)
(... pass is working ...)

it is an app bug or my mistake?

best regards,
Leonardo

P.S. How can I give you some useful log?

Add some info:
qtpass version 1.40
s.o. Fedora 41 desktop
my error message is:

Signature for /home/leonardo/.password-store/familykey//Leonardo/hosts/net/uffalg/orion/users/.gpg-id does not exist.

but it exist and have the right value in it.
the permission is 0600. I change it to 644 but get same error.

best regards,
Leonardo

Sorry. I got nowhere with my problem - i gave up and moved to Bitwarden. It is paid for but it comes with a good desktop software that works well with linux AND a mobile app that talk to each other and keep my passwords safe (from what i can tell) and upto date.

Now on my android 13 smartphone too cannot write password. it tell me invalid signature.

On Linux (fedora 41) if I use pass
$ pass edit ...mykey
still work

seams some library that is not used by pass but is used by qtpass make a mistake

Solved

I find solution to my problem.
in my profile configuration there was 3 field:
name, path and signing key
in Signing key I have put the content of .gpg-id
bad idea!
Singing key have to be let empty: it is not the gpg id key use to read and write.
I have try to fin and help/manual to configure the interface. Have found some info but I have understand Signing key bad.
now all work
