[chef] Chef-vault: Unable to read passwords

[Steffen Gebert < >]

Hi,

I have the problem that I can't read my secrets with chef-vault (on my
workstation, but it works on nodes).

> $ knife encrypt create secrets test '{"test":"foo"}' --admins user1 --mode 
> client
> $ knife encrypt update secrets test '{"test":"foo"}' --admins user1,user2 
> --mode client
> ERROR: OpenSSL::PKey::RSAError: padding check failed
> $ knife decrypt secrets test 'test' --mode client
> ERROR: OpenSSL::PKey::RSAError: padding check failed

I'm not sure, what's the reason, but it seems to use a different key for
encryption than for decryption? The same happens for another colleague.

`knife client show user1` and `knife user show user1` report different
public keys. Could this be the reason? Why has the user a public key
(thought it's only for logging into the webui).

Thanks for your help
Steffen
