New to syncthing and followed the documentation to setup for Debian but when I run apt-get update to pull the repository I get a GPG error saying the signature couldn’t be verified. Wondering if anyone knows whats up? I attached the error output to the thread thanks to anyone who gives this a look.
It looks like the public key wasn’t installed.
Maybe caused by this?
Note the necessary -L option to curl so it correctly downloads the key file.
I tried adding the -L flag to the end of the command and I still get the same error output. Is there anything I need to do to refresh to make this work?
Instead of cURL, try wget:
wget -O /usr/share/keyrings/syncthing-archive-keyring.gpg https://syncthing.net/release-key.gpg
Or, paste https://syncthing.net/release-key.gpg into a web browser to download the GnuPG key. Then move the file to /usr/share/keyrings/syncthing-archive-keyring.gpg on your Debian machine.
Worked! Thanks so much for your help. Any ideas what was going on with cURL?
None, as you didn’t show any output from that. 
Our instructions currently reference /etc/apt/keyrings/ instead of /usr/share/keyrings/. Maybe you mixed something up there and the APT sources file was pointing at the wrong location?
I just tried the instructions on https://apt.syncthing.net/ again and they worked fine.
