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.

same error here
had my $HOME full at on point and there was no error warning about it.
after deleting some files to make room.
and rebooting. i can no longer login using KDE.
i have run:
find $HOME/.Private/ -size 0c -exec ls '{}' \; | wc -l
and got:
203
i also noticed that my $HOME/.ecryptfs is corrupted.
but i am able to access all my files still.
so what is the next option here? delete all these (as they are empty anyhow.
how should i proceed.
i suppose we should try to fix the BUG of no alert when running out of
space here

Hi, no, it is not about the files which are 0bytes in your mounted ecryptfs under /home/user/..., but those encrypted-file-containers that are 0bytes in /home/user/.Private, i.e. intheir encrypted state where something went terribly wrong, and which can't be decrypted anyhow.

[Bug 372014] Re: errors in dmesg
I've used Lucid since March with an encrypted $HOME and no problems
until today. Last night, Transmission couldn't start a download because
there was not enough disk space. I freed space and tried to restart the
torrent, but Transmission froze and became defunct. I didn't know how
to kill that process ('kill -9' didn't work) so I rebooted and
Transmission ran fine. This morning I began having problems with this
bug.
I had ~1600 zero-length files in my home directory (and I deleted those
related to the Transmission lockup), but only one in $HOME/.Private/
--- I deleted that one, too, but that didn't stop the eCrypt error
logging.
After a little more experimenting, I found that it only occurs when
Skype is running. I've deleted all the ~/.Skype/ zero-length files
(locks), but every restart of Skype brings back the errors. Now I'm
suspicious about the Transmission cause, but I'm sure I didn't have
the problem on Friday, since I check dmesg regularly while as part of my
work.
Let me know if more information is needed. This is annoying enough to
reinstall my $HOME unencrypted if not resolved relatively soon.
Thanks,
Doug

...snip...
Hundreds of these messages over the course of a few hours. I'm really
surprised this problem (which first started in Karmic, for my system at
least) managed to make it into Lucid ... admittedly this was somewhat
presumptuous of me, but I kind of thought this would be fixed before the
LTS was released -- especially since the encrypted home directory is
such a popular (and well-advertised) feature. Since upgrading to Lucid
didn't fix the error, I guess I'm looking at a total reinstall (sans the
ecryptfs stuff), moving my data out of my home folder and back in again,
etc -- yikes.
And everything worked so well for 1 year... only started up (for me,
at least) in Q1 of 2010.
Not sure why the status was changed to invalid and the appropriate
target (ecryptfs, ecryptfs-utils, etc) were replaced with launchpad
earlier, but I'm reverting that with apologies in advance: but how
exactly is this a launchpad issue?

What's the output of:

Basically, do you have any 0-length files? If so, it's probably the
ext4 0-byte file bug. Clean those up, and see if the errors in dmesg go
away.

I found the file that caused these messages. cat ~/.cache/desktop-couch/desktop-couchdb.pid cat: desktop-couchdb.pid: Input/output error This was the second time that this file got corrupted. It is a coincidence? It cause couchdb not to start. I removed the pid file. From an end-user point of view it would help if a more verbose log message would tell us which file is causing the problem, if it is de- cryptable. -- errors in dmesg https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/372014 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Sometimes the eclipse (3.5.1) crashes as soon as I create new empty file and save it.

[Bug 372014] Re: errors in dmesg
The problem turned out to be 2 zero-byte files in my .Private directory. I verified via fuser that they weren't in use and deleted them. Thanks to Dustin for the help. -- errors in dmesg https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/372014 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 372014] Re: errors in dmesg
I worked with Joey on IRC to track this down.
This situation occurs when 0-byte files are created in the underlying
filesystem.
It's not entirely clear to me under what circumstances this can happen.
Previously, this was caused by EXT4 errors. I haven't seen those in
practice now in over 6 months. Perhaps there's something else wrong.
In any case, you can solve this for yourself by making sure that the
0-byte files are not in use, and then deleting them.
Something like this might help:
for i in find $(mount | grep on $HOME type ecryptfs | awk '{print $1}')
-size 0c; do
if ! fuser -v $i; then
rm -f $i
fi
done
Then clear your dmesg with:
sudo dmesg -c
And see if they come back...
