SOLVED:
GPG requires exclusive access to the reader, and was somehow locking itself from accessing the card?
I had to add "card-timeout 1" to my scdaemon.conf file
  • File edited (I had to create the file):
    Code:
    %APPDATA%\gnupg\scdaemon.conf
  • Lines Added to File:
    Code:
    log-file scdaemon.log.txt
    card-timeout 1

UPDATE:
I'm not sure why but every once in a while GnuPG is still convinced that it can't get exclusive access to the card...
However it seems that just opening and closing that Yubico Authenticator fixes the problem. (I have the "kill scdaemon on show" option checked in settings)
It's strange, because it fixes the problem even if I don't have the kill scdaemon option checked.
It's like whatever the Yubico Authenticator does when it exits releases the card properly or something.
Also worth noting, manually killing gpg-agent or scdaemon does NOT fix the problem.
The only thing that does (on the rare occasion it pops up again) is opening and closing the Yubico Authenticator


ORIGINAL QUESTION:

I am getting the following error when trying to use the gpg to access the openpgp applet on my new Yubikey 4:

Code:
gpg: selecting openpgp failed: Card error
gpg: OpenPGP card not available: Card error


The strange thing is the version returned by sending the apdu 00 f1 00 00 command (via opensc since gnupg isn't working) returns version 4.2.7 which is the firmware version of my yubikey.
According to this page the latest version is 1.0.11

I tried the delete all entries from device manager trick with no effect

Any ideas why gpg isn't working?

running windows 7 64bit [Version 6.1.7601]
gpg (GnuPG) 2.0.29 (Gpg4win 2.3.0)
yubikey firmware version 4.2.7

below is the full output of my gpg/opensc commands:

Have you tried running Command Prompt as Administrator?

Is your Admin PIN/PIN locked out from previous attempts?

Have you tried terminating the GnuPG processes in Task Manager and trying again?

I'm running the same as you (GnuPG 2.0.29, Gpg4win 2.3.0, libgcrypt 1.6.4 - Windows 10 currently) and haven't come across "card error" before.

Yes I was running in an elevated prompt

Have you tried terminating the GnuPG processes in Task Manager and trying again?

Yes many times.

Is your Admin PIN/PIN locked out from previous attempts?

I don't think so? Since I never got as far as to actually be able to SET the admin pin.
But hold on let me try to reset it and see if that helps (I'll have to use opensc to send the adpu commands)

hmm well this is interesting after I sent the apdu 00 e6 00 00 command (which returned 90 00 as expected)
I can no longer send commands via opensc:

Code:
C:\Program Files\OpenSC Project\OpenSC\tools>opensc-tool.exe -c openpgp -s 00e60000
Using reader with a card: Yubico Yubikey 4 OTP+U2F+CCID 0
Sending: 00 E6 00 00
Received (SW1=0x90, SW2=0x00)

C:\Program Files\OpenSC Project\OpenSC\tools>opensc-tool.exe -c openpgp -s 00440000
Using reader with a card: Yubico Yubikey 4 OTP+U2F+CCID 0
Failed to connect to card: Card command failed


It's not even returning the version anymore from the adpu 00 f1 00 00 command ....

Code:
C:\Program Files\OpenSC Project\OpenSC\tools>opensc-tool.exe -c openpgp -s 00f10000
Using reader with a card: Yubico Yubikey 4 OTP+U2F+CCID 0
Failed to connect to card: Card command failed


Even more disturbing is that now the Yubikey NEO Manager doesn't show that there is a OpenPGP Applet on the device... (it used to show up)
I have attached a screenshot of the NEO Manager window.

Does this mean I just nuked the OpenPGP Applet? If so where do I go from here?

What build of Windows is this?

Can you try:

gpg-connect-agent --hex
> scd apdu 00 44 00 00

It looks like you got through the terminate card step, but it hasn't been reactivated. Here is what my NEO Manager looks like before I reactivate the OpenPGP applet:

Image

Regarding the "applet version", that is correct, the OpenPGP applet version will report as the firmware version. The YubiKey 4 is a monolithic firmware (applets are built into the firmware).

Sorry for the slow reply.

This is Windows 7 (I have the "classic theme" on)

Image

So I tried scd apdu 00 44 00 00 and it didn't work, BUT I tried once more this morning before I posted this and it worked??

Code:
C:\>gpg-connect-agent --hex
> scd apdu 00 44 00 00
D[0000]  90 00                                              ..
OK


Image

But now I'm back to the original problem:

Code:
> scd apdu 00 f1 00 00
ERR 100663404 Card error <SCD>
> scd serialno
ERR 100663404 Card error <SCD>

Ah, another clue: I added the "log-file" directive to my scdaemon.conf and the log shows:

Code:
2016-02-29 21:37:59 scdaemon[11500] detected reader `Yubico Yubikey 4 OTP+U2F+CCID 0'
2016-02-29 21:37:59 scdaemon[11500] pcsc_connect failed: sharing violation (0x8010000b)
2016-02-29 21:37:59 scdaemon[11500] updating slot 0 status: 0x0000->0x0007 (0->1)
2016-02-29 21:37:59 scdaemon[11500] triggering event e0 (000000E0) for client -1


So maybe it's GPG's need for exclusive access to the card...?

Now I just need to find out what is accessing the card...

Ah HA!

Turns out it gpg itself locking the card (wtf?)

I needed to add "card-timeout 1" to my scdaemon.conf file (located at %APPDATA%\gnupg\scdaemon.conf)

And now success!!!!

Code:
C:\>gpg -v --card-status
gpg: no running gpg-agent - starting one
gpg: waiting 5 seconds for the agent to come up

Sorry to dig up an old thread, but I ran into the same error message via command prompt but worked through GUI, which stumped me for a moment - So thought it could be useful.

My particular case ended up being conflicting version of GPG and an older 1.4.x being supplied by Git for Windows.
I have redefined my user PATH environment variable with gpg4win being higher in the variable, but Git's instance was still taking priority and I ended up having to alter both user and system PATH for it to default (which I found odd on it's own).
