ERROR Key file not found #2

Hello,

i installed Vecna on my smartphone because i like the idea to use gpg for
a password safe, but i can't get it to work.

Smartphone:
Sony Xperia U (ST25i)
Android 4.0.4

What i tried to make it work:

  1. Created public and private RSA2048 (and RSA1024) key using GnuPG
    (tried Enigmail plugin, Thunderbird 17.0.2 and manually)
  2. Encrypted a textfile.txt using the created private key with the content:

account - a descriptive name of what the password is for
username - the username for the account
password - the password for the account

Checked if decryption works on the desktop PC.

  1. Copied pulic key, private key and the encrypted textfile to
    /mnt/sdcard/Notes/
    4)Setup password file path in Vecna to /mnt/sdcard/Notes/textfile.txt and
    key path to /mnt/sdcard/Notes/key.asc
  2. Then i get the error Message

"ERROR Key file not found"

I also tried to create a key and textfile using APG,
set the path to "/sdcard/Notes/key.asc" since some apps add the /mnt by themselves,
used different file extensions and checked if it works when the files are on root folder of the sdcard and rechecked the path a few times,
but got the same error in any case.
Also i tried to build your app in eclipse, but it hangs up while launching.
I didn't have the time yet to check why eclipse hangs up, maybe a library is missing?

Best regards,

fastndirect
