When I try to install anything or update the system it gives this error and can not install anything
I tried to change Keys but it didn't work.After that I changed the Signlevel or sth to =never again errors.
updating pacman didn't work as well.
The only thing working
pacman -Syy

packer -S chromium

You might want to read about pacman-key

It will take you through setting pacman up with regard to trusted keys.

Oh I checked out before that link but I was doing it wrong.Now my /etc/pacman.conf

#[testing]
## Add your preferred servers here, they will be used first
#Include = /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist

[core]
SigLevel = TrustAll
Include = /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist

[extra]
SigLevel = TrustAll
Include = /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist

#[community-testing]
## Add your preferred servers here, they will be used first
#Include = /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist

#[multilib]
## Add your preferred servers here, they will be used first
#Include = /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist

[community]
SigLevel = TrustAll
Include = /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist

# An example of a custom package repository.  See the pacman manpage for
# tips on creating your own repositories.
#[custom]
SigLevel = Optional TrustAll
#Server = file:///home/custompkgs

EDIT:But update still not working.
giving the same key error

Ok, so it's solved?

karol · 2012-03-16 22:41:34

Did you run 'pacman-key --init'?

yes I tried to run pacman-key --init but It didn't work as well.

I think I solved the problem

I deleted all things in the /etc/pacman.conf and changed with /etc/pacman.conf.pacnew .
Everything is working now.

karol · 2012-03-17 16:59:02

If things are working now, please remember to mark the thread as solved.

musdawdaf · 2012-03-17 22:36:46

After that I installed another Arch and again gave directly this error.
'pacman.conf.new' worked on the new system as well.
Thanks a lot for your help.

You should always take care of pacnew files.
