I seem to be getting this error also. Apr 1 20:00:34 ardbeg kernel: [ 6256.103223] Either the lower file is not in a valid eCryptfs format, or the key could not be retrieved. Plaintext passthrough mode is not enabled; returning -EIO I can provoke it in the clear filesystem like so ... find . -type f -exec cat {} \; > /dev/null which results in... cat: ./mail/misc/77735: Input/output error cat: ./mail/misc/77811: Input/output error cat: ./mail/misc/77829: Input/output error I first noticed it because I use unison to sync these files. The files are zero length in the clear filesystem (and shouldn't be). I presume that are zero length in the encrypted. I certainly have zero length files in the encrypted but can't be sure they are the same, of course. This is on 10.10. It's not a clean installation, but it is a clean user space after my initial attempts to migrate the file system to encrypted failed and broke my account. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/372014 Title: errors in dmesg -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
