[Solved] Pacman -S or pacman -Syu Signature error.

Hi Guys, I am new to Arch.
When I tried to download package with pacman, I always get error: iana-etc: signature from "xxx" is invalid
:: File /var/cache/pacman/pkg/xxx.pkg.tar.xz is corrupted (invalid or corrupted package (PGP signature)).

I read the forum some suggested to update the system which I got the same error too.
I tried to update the keyring but I get the same error afterward.

Besides, may I know where I can get resources to learn and master the art of Arch ?

Thank you in advance to those who help me.

Regards,
Ac3

[bold] SOLUTION [/bold]

sudo pacman -Syy
sudo pacman -S gnupg
sudo pacman-key --populate archlinux
sudo pacman-key --refresh-keys
sudo pacman -Syyu

I tried to remove gnu directory and reinit the key after upgrade the keyring.
But the problem still here ><

Re: [Solved] Pacman -S or pacman -Syu Signature error.

I checked my time, it is correct ><

Just to make sure, please post the output of 'timedatectl'.

This error is sometime caused by a faulty mirror, so try switching to a different one.
