Gpg key for docker repo fail to fetch from key server

General

This was working previously, doesn’t work for me today. Changing the key server results in the same error. Is the docker apt repo GPG key broken?

ubuntu@ubuntu-xenial:~$ sudo apt-key adv --keyserver hkp://p80.pool.sks-keyservers.net:80 --recv-keys 58118E89F3A912897C070ADBF76221572C52609D

Same problem here. Tried to install the key today and retrieved:
sudo apt-key adv --keyserver hkp://p80.pool.sks-keyservers.net:80 --recv-keys 58118E89F3A912897C070ADBF76221572C52609D

My problem was inside the environment:
macOS Siera 10.12.1 and VirtualBox Version 5.1.8 r111374 (Qt5.5.1) running a Linux Ubuntu 16.04 VM.

Problem was solved via: Changing the network settings inside VirtualBox from: NAT to Bridged adapter!

It’s definitely a problem with the network configuration.

Cheers.

I also encountered this problem, for me in an ubuntu 16.04 server running inside VirtualBox 5.18 r111374 with NAT network type. Here is my output:

$ sudo apt-key adv --keyserver hkp://p80.pool.sks-keyservers.net:80 --recv-keys 58118E89F3A912897C070ADBF76221572C52609D

Similar to @gutwinalex, I was able to work around this by shutting down the server, changing the network type to Bridged, bringing up the server, running the same command, then shutting down the server again to return the network type back to NAT.

When I did all that, here was the output:

$ sudo apt-key adv --keyserver hkp://p80.pool.sks-keyservers.net:80 --recv-keys 58118E89F3A912897C070ADBF76221572C52609D

The problem is in the VirtualBox version that you are using. I solved the issue by downgrading to version 4.3.40.

Hi All,

Same problem here
sudo apt-key adv \

Please suggest what might be wrong?

I solved the issue by upgrading to VirtualBox 5.1.14
