I can now confirm that the unmounting only happens at times when two cronjobs are run as my user. None of the jobs is supposed to do anything in ~/Private. The bug doesn't happen every time, so this seems like a race condition.
Jamie, I don't know if it matters, but the Private dir is also getting unmounted when it is the cwd of several shells and I have files in there opened with an editor. I will now try to reproduce the bug with more simple cronjobs like "ls ~ >/dev/null". -- ecryptfs private directory randomly unmounts https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/358573 You received this bug notification because you are a member of eCryptfs, which is subscribed to ecryptfs-utils in ubuntu. Status in eCryptfs - Enterprise Cryptographic Filesystem: Confirmed Status in “ecryptfs-utils” source package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Binary package hint: ecryptfs-utils This seems to be bug #259293, but I am filing a new one as I haven't seen this in some time. Twice in the last week my ~/Private directory unmounted. Both times /tmp/ecryptfs-<user>-Private was '0'. Both times, the symlink in the unmounted ~/Private was not present. I have a cron job that runs every 10 minutes that I can see in syslog: Apr 9 11:15:04 hostname CRON[22771]: Mount of private directory return code [0] It could be that bug #259293 is simply 'mostly' fixed and I coincidentally hit this twice in the last week, or it could be a new bug (I don't know).
