Adding GPG key inside docker container causes "no valid OpenPGP data found"

Question

I'm trying to install New Relic's system monitoring inside a docker container, but the apt-key add - fails with no valid OpenPGP data found.

There is the full Dockerfile:

FROM ubuntu
MAINTAINER Matej Koubik

RUN echo deb http://apt.newrelic.com/debian/ newrelic non-free >> /etc/apt/sources.list.d/newrelic.list
RUN wget -O- https://download.newrelic.com/548C16BF.gpg | apt-key add -
RUN apt-get update
RUN apt-get install newrelic-sysmond
RUN nrsysmond-config --set license_key=...
RUN /etc/init.d/newrelic-sysmond start

Answer 1

The solution provided by @xdays works around the problem, but also works around the protection that ssl is providing. You could install the ca-certificates package before issuing your wget statement and it should work with ssl.

Add the following line before your call to wget:

RUN apt-get install -y ca-certificates wget

Answer 2

I ran into this issue when i was installing docker.

run sudo apt install apt-transport-https ca-certificates curl software-properties-common

You can refer here.

And then curl -fsSL https://download.docker.com/linux/ubuntu/gpg | sudo apt-key add -

Answer 3

it seems that the problem is wget, add --no-check-certificate to your wget, and everything is ok.

# wget --no-check-certificate -O- https://download.newrelic.com/548C16BF.gpg | apt-key add -

Answer 4

You can run wget -O- https://download.newrelic.com/548C16BF.gpg | apt-key add - seperately with wget -O- https://download.newrelic.com/548C16BF.gpg and apt-key add -. You can refer here.

And this is same for curl.
