i followed josefsson's instructions for setting up a neo with pgp subkeys on debian.

everything seemed to work perfectly. but i cannot seem to sign or encrypt on windows (usb) or debian (usb) or android (usb|nfc). debian seems to be the most descriptive of all:

Code:
$ gpg --clearsign demo.txt
gpg: detected reader `Yubico Yubikey NEO OTP+U2F+CCID 00 00'
gpg: signatures created so far: 0

Please enter the PIN
[sigs done: 0]
gpg: apdu_send_simple(0) failed: unknown status error
gpg: signing failed: general error
gpg: demo.txt: clearsign failed: general error
$


Code:
$ gpg --card-status
gpg: detected reader `Yubico Yubikey NEO OTP+U2F+CCID 00 00'
(. . .)
Max. PIN lengths .: 127 127 127
PIN retry counter : 3 3 3
Signature counter : 0
(. . .)


if i enter the wrong pin, it throws a different error, and decrements the respective counter:

Code:
$ gpg --clearsign demo.txt
gpg: detected reader `Yubico Yubikey NEO OTP+U2F+CCID 00 00'
gpg: signatures created so far: 0

Please enter the PIN
[sigs done: 0]
gpg: verify CHV1 failed: general error
gpg: signing failed: general error
gpg: demo.txt: clearsign failed: general error
$ gpg --card-status
gpg: detected reader `Yubico Yubikey NEO OTP+U2F+CCID 00 00'
(. . .)
Max. PIN lengths .: 127 127 127
PIN retry counter : 2 3 3
Signature counter : 0
(. . .)


so i know the problem is not that i am entering the wrong pin.

are there complexity requirements on the pin that may not be met? my user pin is 6 digits, admin pin is 8 digits.

please help! many thanks.

OK, i figured out that i can encrypt and decrypt. but i can't sign. signing throws the error. and once signing throws the error, i can't encrypt again until i pull the card, kill gpg2-agent, and reinsert the card.

anyone know why this may be happening?

One more note: specifying the specific subkey for signing does not solve the problem:

Code:
PS > gpg --armor -su signingSubKeyID .\demo.txt
File `.\\demo.txt.asc' exists. Overwrite? (y/N) y
gpg: signing failed: Card error
gpg: signing failed: Card error


I contacted Yubico support today. Hopefully they'll be able to help. I hope I just overlooked something silly!

The encryption works all fine and dandy, which is cool. So I'm close to having this all working...

I'll leave you all alone until I can mark this topic as solved. Thanks for looking, and sorry for the updates.

I got it to work, with help of Yubico's Matthew.

I booted a kubuntu live OS, and installed the packages as listed by Simon (backports unnecessary).

I restored the secrets from my backup. I then moved the subkeys to the Neo, overwriting the old subkeys on the Neo.

That resolved all the issues.

Code:
kubuntu@kubuntu:~$ echo "secret demo message." | gpg -aser my@email.addr
