It really works and solves the problem thank you :)

Worked for me too - thanks heaps!

Thanks, this really cleared the problem out for me!

It is more convenient to add export GPG_TTY=$(tty) to.zshrc .
You can avoid repeating this step in the future

sodo vi ~/.zshrc

Thank you very much.

Very helpful. Solved the problem of not being able to publish to Maven Central when attempting to follow these instructions: https://dzone.com/articles/publish-your-artifacts-to-maven-central

Works on Windows10 using Ubuntu as well
