LUKS2 volume creation fails #114
Comments
Run below command from root's terminal and report its output

Output:

You were supposed to run the command from root's account. Is your system fully updated? There was a version of zulucrypt in debian buster that was not working people and the problem was fixed later on. |
I updated the apt sources and redownloaded zulucrypt.-gui. Tested it wih LUKS2 same problem. Ran test as root with out put below. Am I right to say it does't test the second LUKS version? :

From root's run these commands and post the output of the second command

I dont see anything wrong with your output and I don't see why zuluCrypt is failing. Will install Debian buster Monday to see for myself why its failing. |
Where are you trying to create your volume? In a container file or hard drive? If its in a hard drive ,can you create a LUKS2 volume with the test command i gave above but with "luks.img" path substituted with your hard drive |
Just a container file. Haven't tried anything else for now.
I'm a bit of a noob with HDD volume encryption. I focus on just container files. |
Thanks for spending time to install Buster. Please use the opportunity to test deniable plain dm-crypt containers too, which I ran into problems with. It is a very interesting feature to have and I'm happy to see it exists on Linux. |
I can not reproduce your issue in debian Buster. What is the size of the container file you are creating? |
Found the problem. The volume creation process took more than 30 seconds in your system and this[1] method was timing out after 30 seconds This[2] commit solved the problem. Thanks for the report. [1] https://doc.qt.io/qt-5/qlocalsocket.html#waitForReadyRead |
I tried creating LUKS2 volumes on Debian Buster but it errors out without explanation. I have the cryptsetup binaries installed. Any idea if it is a missing dependency or a bug in ZC?
