  • gpg: failed to start the dirmngr

    When i add a key with apt-key command, i get error

    root@ip-172-31-47-128:~# apt-key adv –recv-keys –keyserver keys.gnupg.net E1F958385BFE2B6E
    Executing: /tmp/apt-key-gpghome.0BP6Ro2t54/gpg.1.sh –recv-keys –keyserver keys.gnupg.net E1F958385BFE2B6E

    gpg: keyserver receive failed: No dirmngr

    To fix this, run

    apt -y install dirmngr

    Once installed, apt-key command worked properly.
