If your having problems with GPG & PHP..

[bjblackmore]

Hi,
I've just spent todays trying to get GPG to run with PHP, it wouldn't execute GPG cause it was using user 'nobody' rather the the user for my shell account. However after talking to my shell company, they tested some stuff, and gave me this, it might or might not work for you, however I thought I'd post it here, in case someone needed it.
When you want to invoke GPG, use: -
system("export HOME=/users/myaccount ; /usr/bin/gpg --encrypt --no-secmem-warning -ao $crypted -r 'MyKey' $plainTxt");

Its the extra "export HOME=/users/myaccount ;" that seems to have solved my problem, it might yours.
Cheers
Ben

Here is my entire code I use to get GPG & PHP working together if anyone wants it.

$message .= "\nThis is line 1 of the message\n".
"This is line 2: - $variable1\n\n".
"This is line 3: - $variable2\n\n".
"This is line 4: - $variable3\n\n".
"Add more lines: - $variable4";

//set the environment variable for GNUPGPATH
putenv("/users/myaccount/.gnupg");

//generate token for unique filenames
$tmpToken = md5(uniqid(rand()));

//create vars to hold paths and filenames
$crypted = ("/users/myaccount/tmpdata/" . "$tmpToken" . "gpgdata");
$plainTxt = ("/users/myaccount/tmpdata/" . "$tmpToken" . "data");

//open file and dump in plaintext contents
$fp = fopen($plainTxt, "w+");
fputs($fp, $message);
fclose($fp);

//invoke GPG to encrypt file contents
system("export HOME=/users/myaccount ; /usr/bin/gpg --encrypt --no-secmem-warning -ao $crypted -r 'MyKey' $plainTxt");

//open file and read encrypted contents into var
$fd = fopen($crypted, "r");
$mail_cont = fread($fd, filesize($crypted));
fclose($fd);

//delete files!
unlink($plainTxt);
unlink($crypted);

// Build mail message and send it to target recipient.
$recipient = "[e-mail]";
$subject = "Encrypted Message";
$mailheaders .= "From: $forename $surname <$email>";

mail($recipient, $subject, $mail_cont, $mailheaders);
// Print confirmation to screen.
$feedback .= ' All Details Filled In Correctly ';
