Launchpad OpenPGP Cnofirmation problem



I am new here  and fairly new to Ubuntu and Linux so I need a little
help. I am trying to confirm my OpemPGP key. I've gotten to the part
where you have to digitally sign the Code of Coduct text file from a
terminal, but cannot get that part to work.

I have opened the terminal in the same folder as the file - which has
the default name0 I copy and pasted the command into the terminal from
the instruction page provided in the encrypted email. But when I try to
execute the command I get the following error message:


> You need a passphrase to unlock the secret key for
> user: "John Botscharow <john@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>"
> 1024-bit DSA key, ID 3D45BBB5, created 2008-05-22
> 
> gpg: can't open `UbuntuCodeOfConduct-1.0.1.txt': No such file or directory
> gpg: UbuntuCodeOfConduct-1.0.1.txt: clearsign failed: file open error
> john@john-desktop:~$ 
> 

No window opens requesting the password so I have no clue how to deal with this.
I'm techically challenged anyway LOL and this terminal stuff is all "G[r]eek" to me. 

Help please!

Peace!

John
