Bug ID: 459311
Summary: Impossible to create new vault with the same name as
the previously deleted
Classification: Unclassified
Product: Plasma Vault
Version: unspecified
Platform: Other
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: ivan.cu...@kde.org
Reporter: med.medin.2...@gmail.com
Target Milestone: ---
If you create a vault named for example "PrivateVault" using cryfs algo, then
remove it, so any attempt to create a new vault with the same name
"PrivateVault" and same encryption location will fail with error code:
"Unable to perform the operation (error code 20)."
The problem is that after successfully deleting that vault, some traces still
persist in "/home/user/.config/plasmavaultrc" and
"/home/user/.local/share/cryfs/". Removing those traces will solve the problem.
Another problem is that if creation operation fails you will find some junk
files in encryption location like "cryfs.config" and the mount target is
created and some entries are added to "plasmavaultrc". "cryfs.config" file and
the target mount location if they don't exist before should never be created if
the creation operation fails.
