Re: [Duplicity-talk] Setting the PASSPHRASE inside the duplicity program itself

Hi,

I think,

results from duplicity not being able to read the manifest. That  
happens when you try to use duplicity without encrypting to a local  
key to which private key and passphrase duplicity has access to.
When you invoke it like
duplicity --encrypt-key 'AAA' --sign-key 'BBB' source target
it creates a manifest file that can only be opened with AAA's private  
key, which in this case isn't stored on the local machine.
If BBB is your local key, you should add another --encrypt-key 'BBB'  
parameter.

I hope, this helps with your problem, I just spent a few hours to  
figure that out :-/

Cheers,

Philip
