(Fixed) LUKS Encryption not supported: Stuck at getting new disk information

[noah]

I get stuck at "Getting new Disk Information"

I think I have narrowed the reason down, running getdevinfo.py yields->

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Is that the cause of the problem /dev/mapper/sda3_crypt?

Hi,

Thanks for the bug report, and also for giving me the relevant section of log messages :)

Sounds a bit odd, could you give me the output of "lvdisplay --maps" please?

[Hamish McIntyre-Bhatty (hamishmb)]

Oh! Which version of DDRescue-GUI are you running?

I can't believe I forgot to type the version number:p.

Thanks!

Okay, is /dev/mapper/sda3_crypt and encrypted volume? If so, my apologies, because the current version of DDRescue-GUI won't work if you have encrypted volumes, but now that I'm aware of the issue, I shall fix it in the next release :)

[Hamish McIntyre-Bhatty (hamishmb)]

^ If so, could you tell me what encryption system this is, because it doesn't look like LUKS to me? I understand if you don't want to say :)

[Hamish McIntyre-Bhatty (hamishmb)]

Hi,

Confirmed that LUKS encryption causes a crash. Will fix in the next version.

[Hamish McIntyre-Bhatty (hamishmb)]

This will be fixed in version 1.7.1/1.8

[Hamish McIntyre-Bhatty (hamishmb)]

I've marked this as wishlist - this is a missing feature.

I do plan to add it, though I can't say when, because of time constraints at the moment. I will do it though, and it should be in one of the next few releases.

[Hamish McIntyre-Bhatty (hamishmb)]

NB: As of newer versions of DDRescue-GUI, this is an issue with the GetDevInfo module. It may not cause crashes anymore, but I will need to check.

[Hamish McIntyre-Bhatty (hamishmb)]

Note: Since this bug was reported, error handling has been improved significantly both in GetDevInfo and in the dependent programs - this should not cause a crash any more.

[Hamish McIntyre-Bhatty (hamishmb)]

No longer causes a crash with modern GetDevInfo.

Note that LUKS volumes can still not be mounted with DDRescue-GUI, but I plan to add this soon.

I also plan to add support for them in GetDevInfo to generate nice descriptions for LUKS volumes, and to detect unlocked LUKS volumes.
